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 incidence of fungal infections has increased markedly in recent years, driven by increasing resistance to conventional antifungal agents. To address this challenge, the World Health Organization has highlighted the urgent need for novel antifungal molecules, particularly those that can enhance the efficacy of existing drugs. Synthetic peptides (γAFPs), derived from conserved γ-core motifs (GXC-X
