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

Vaginal yeast infection is one of the most common diseases caused by vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC). Effective therapy for VVC is needed. A lipid-based amphotericin B gel 0.1% (LAB) was developed and evaluated for the treatment of VVC patients and those who failed to azole therapy. LAB was applied topically twice daily for 7 days to 64 moderate patients and 14 days to 55 severely infected VVC patients. Additionally, 66 patients who failed to azole therapy were treated twice daily with LAB for 14 days. A 91.5% clinical response and 93.16% mycological response was observed in VVC patients. The patients treated with LAB who failed to azole therapy showed a 75% clinical, 95.3% mycological response and 83% remission was observed.Overall, the LAB was found to be efficacious and safe for the treatment of VVC patients. Clinical Trial Registration All the trials were registered at Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2013/02/003378, CTRI/2014/02/004409).
