The Effect of Terbinafine and Its Ionic Salts on Certain Fungal Plant Pathogens.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Terbinafine, an inhibitor of squalene epoxidase in ergosterol biosynthesis, is chiefly utilized as an antifungal medication with potential uses in pesticide applications. This study explores the fungicidal efficacy of terbinafine against prevalent plant pathogens and confirms its effectiveness. To augment its water solubility, five ionic salts of terbinafine were synthesized by pairing them with organic acids. Among these salts, TIS 5 delivered the most impressive results, amplifying the water solubility of terbinafine by three orders of magnitude and lessening its surface tension to facilitate better dispersion during spraying. The in vivo experiments on cherry tomatoes showed that TIS 5 had a superior therapeutic activity compared to its parent compound and two commonly used broad-spectrum fungicides, pyraclostrobin and carbendazim. The results highlight the potential of terbinafine and its ionic salts, particularly TIS 5, for use as fungicides in agriculture due to their synergistic effects with furan-2-carboxylate.
