Therapy for fungal infections in leukemia.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Invasive fungal infections remain a common cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with leukemia who become further compromised by neutropenia. Candida and Aspergillus spp account for the vast majority of these infections, but other, less commonly recognized fungi can cause life-threatening infection in these hosts as well. The earlier, more limited antifungal armamentarium of ketoconazole, flucytosine, and amphotericin B has been substantially augmented by the availability of fluconazole, itraconazole, and the lipid-associated amphotericin formulations. Intense clinical study has focused on the use of these agents in empiric treatment, treatment of suspected or proven infection, and prophylaxis. Recognition of the limitations of antifungal therapy in the neutropenic host has led to evaluation of the adjunctive role of immunotherapy.
