Emerging Issues in Nosocomial Fungal Infections.
Article in Current infectious disease reports, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Nosocomial fungal infections remain a serious cause of morbidity and mortality. As immunodeficient populations increase, the incidence of nosocomial fungal infections continues to rise. Although a wide variety of new and emerging fungi can cause nosocomial infections, Candida species remain the major etiologic agent. Candida species vary in their epidemiology and therapy. New diagnostic, epidemiologic, and therapeutic tools have been developed and are discussed in this review. They include the use of polymerase chain reaction-based diagnostic methods, recent advances in antifungal susceptibility testing, and comparative therapeutic and prophylactic trials. As advances in prevention, diagnosis, and therapy continue, nosocomial fungal infections and the morbidity and mortality associated with them can be reduced.
