1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In medical mycology, epigenetic mechanisms are emerging as key regulators of multiple aspects of fungal biology ranging from development, phenotypic and morphological plasticity to antifungal drug resistance. Emerging resistance to the limited therapeutic options for the treatment of invasive fungal infections is a growing concern. Human fungal pathogens develop drug resistance via multiple mechanisms, with recent studies highlighting the role of epigenetic changes involving the acetylation and methylation of histones, remodeling of chromatin and heterochromatin-based gene silencing, in the acquisition of antifungal resistance. A comprehensive understanding of how pathogens acquire drug resistance will aid the development of new antifungal therapies as well as increase the efficacy of current antifungals by blocking common drug-resistance mechanisms. In this article, we describe the epigenetic mechanisms that affect resistance towards widely used systemic antifungal drugs: azoles, echinocandins and polyenes. Additionally, we review the literature on the possible links between DNA mismatch repair, gene silencing and drug-resistance mechanisms.
