Nicotinamide potentiates amphotericin B activity against
Article in Virulence, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Amphotericin B (AmB) is a widely used antifungal agent especially for the therapy of systemic fungal infections. However, the severe side effects of AmB often leads to the premature termination of the treatment. So it is imperative to find the drugs that can both reduce the dosage and enhance the antifungal efficacy of AmB. Here we demonstrated that Nicotinamide (NAM), a cheap and safe vitamin, could enhance the antifungal activities of AmB. We demonstrated the synergistic interaction of NAM and AmB against
