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

Introduction: The basal fungus Methods: This hypothesis has been experimentally tested for Results: Strains expressing MluCyp51 isoforms +/- MluCPR showed expression levels of 38-69% compared to an overexpressed Erg11 control. Susceptibility assays confirmed that MluCyp51-F5 confers intrinsic resistance to short-tailed azoles, while substitutions F129Y, A293V, or both restored susceptibility. Growth- and susceptibility-assays revealed that the MluCyp51-F1 + CPR construct had a voriconazole MIC of 0.5 μM, while MluCyp51-F5 + CPR had a MIC of 11.5 μM, with no changes in growth rate or ergosterol composition at 1.0 μM voriconazole. Susceptibility to long-tailed azoles (e.g., posaconazole) remained unchanged for both isoforms. Discussion: These findings demonstrate the functional expression of MluCyp51-F1 and MluCyp51-F5 isoforms in a phylogenetically distant host and confirm that conserved substitutions Y129F and V293A in MluCyp51-F5 confer intrinsic resistance to short-tailed azoles in
