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

Fungal infections affect millions of people worldwide, and the several cases are related to invasive infections, which is a problem mainly for immunocompromised people, such as transplant and cancer patients with high mortality and morbidity rates. In addition, the number of emerging and multidrug-resistant fungal species has increased in the last decade. The search for new antifungal compounds is necessary, due to the increase in cases of resistance and the toxicity of drugs used in fungal infection treatment. This work aimed to study the antifungal activity of cercosporamide produced by Phaeosphaeriaceae GV-1. Cercosporamide was tested against pathogenic fungi by determining the minimum inhibitory (MIC) and minimum fungicidal (MFC) concentrations, using the broth microdilution method. Cercosporamide showed antifungal activity in vitro against 13 of 16 strains of medical importance tested, with the most susceptible species being Candida tropicalis, with MIC and MFC of 15.6 μg/mL. Thus, cercosporamide might be considered a promising therapeutic antifungal agent.
