Genetic Screens of an Anti-Candida Natural Product Using the Heterozygous Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mutant Library.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Candida albicans is one of the most common fungal pathogens in humans. Due to the development of resistance to antifungal drugs, today there is a need for finding new antifungal agents with new pharmacological targets for a more efficient management of C. albicans infections. Drug repositioning or drug repurposing has been exploited to develop new antifungal approaches. Natural products may be more easily developed because they have been a useful source of active antimicrobials. Additionally, new antifungals are needed to combat drug-resistant infections caused by fungi such as by Candida species. Once compounds are identified, determining the mode of action (MOA) of natural products is a key objective. Genetic screens utilizing the Saccharomyces cerevisiae heterozygous mutant library provides a direct link between a phenotypic screen (easy read-out) and the identity of the gene target. Screens using mutant libraries can identify chemical-genetic interactions and genes or pathways affected by compounds to decipher the mechanism of action. Herein, we describe a genetic screen of an anti-Candida natural product.
