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

The frequency of opportunistic fungal infections has been increasing, impacting agriculture, food, and health sectors. In this work, four thiosemicarbazone-chalcones (TC) were synthesized and evaluated by the radial diffusion method against filamentous fungi. All TCs were effective against Aspergillus parasiticus, especially the fluor-substituted one, with radial growth inhibition of 62,9% and 74,4% at the lower (0.209 µmol/ml) and highest (1.670 µmol/ml) concentrations tested, respectively. On the other hand, the non-substituted derivative was the most active against A. carbonarius, inhibiting radial growth by 47,9% and 74,1% at 0.222 µmol/ml and 1.777 µmol/ml, respectively. Additionally, the compounds were evaluated against the dimorphic fungi Sporothrix brasiliensis, S. schenckii, and a clinical strain of Sporothrix spp, exhibiting minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in the range of 0.396-1.777 µmol/ml. When tested against four yeasts of the Candida genus, the thiosemicarbazone-chalcones demonstrated greater activity against C. krusei (MICs 0.011-0.026 µmol/ml).
