Antifungal susceptibility testing of yeast isolates from blood cultures by microbroth dilution and the E test.
Article in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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 results of microbroth dilution were compared with those of the E test for 169 yeast isolates tested for their susceptibility to antifungal agents. All isolates were tested by both methods against amphotericin B, ketoconazole, fluconazole, and itraconazole. The E test results generally correlated well with those obtained by the reference method. There was at least 80% agreement of minimum inhibitory concentration results within two dilutions for all yeast species and agents tested, except for Cryptococcus neoformans tested with fluconazole (8% agreement). The E test appears to be a suitable alternative antifungal susceptibility test method for yeasts, although improvements are required for testing Cryptococcus neoformans against fluconazole.
