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 in recent years, particularly among immunocompromised individuals. Treatment of invasive fungal infections has been hampered by a limited number of available antifungal agents and both intrinsic and acquired resistance to these agents among many fungal pathogens. Therefore, much interest has focused on elucidating the molecular basis for antifungal resistance. Recent efforts have increased our understanding of this process, including the transcriptional regulation of azole resistance in Candida spp, mechanisms of intrinsic resistance to amphotericin B, and mechanisms of acquired resistance to the new echinocandin class of antifungal agents. This review discusses these and other newly clarified resistance mechanisms, as well as the direction of future antifungal resistance research. Despite these advances, undiscovered resistance determinants exist, and resistance to newer agents likely will continue to emerge.
