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

backgroundThe rising incidence of fluconazole-resistant

aimTo delineate the proteomic and β-hydroxybutyrylome changes associated with fluconazole resistance and identify potential novel therapeutic approaches.

methodsWe performed comprehensive proteomic and β-hydroxybutyrylome analyses on fluconazole-resistant and -susceptible

resultsProteomic profiling exhibited significant dysregulation of acylation-modulating enzymes, notably downregulation of histone acetyltransferase RTT109 and upregulation of deacetylase HDA1. WB confirmed pronounced suppression of β-hydroxybutyrylation in the resistant strain. Combination therapy reduced the minimum inhibitory concentration values of fluconazole and BHB by 64-fold and 4-fold, respectively, indicating a synergistic interaction. β-hydroxybutyrylome profiling identified 27 significantly upregulated sites on 27 proteins and 91 downregulated sites on 86 proteins in the resistant strain, consistent with WB data. Bioinformatic analyses implicated alterations in β-hydroxybutyrylation of metabolic pathway proteins as a key mechanism underlying the development of fluconazole resistance.
