Nitric oxide-loaded nano- and microparticle platforms serving as potential new antifungal therapeutics.
Article in Fungal biology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Fungal diseases are a leading threat to human health, especially in individuals with compromised immunity. Although there have been recent important advances in antifungal drug development, antifungal resistance, drug-drug interactions and difficulties in delivery remain major challenges. Among its pleiotropic actions, nitric oxide (NO) is a key molecule in host defense. We have developed a flexible nanoparticle platform that delivers sustained release of NO and have demonstrated the platform's efficacy against diverse bacteria as well as some fungal species. In this work, we investigate the effects of two NO-releasing particles against a panel of important human yeast. Our results demonstrate that the compounds are both effective against diverse yeast, including ascomycota and basidiomycota species, and that NO-releasing particles may be a potent addition to our armamentarium for the treatment of focal and disseminated mycoses.
