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

Invasive candidiasis can occur in immunosuppressed patients as well as in critically ill, non-immunocompromised patients and is associated with high mortality (20-40 %). Intestinal Candida colonisation is an important source for invasive candidiasis. Risk factors for the development of invasive candidiasis include presence of an intravascular device, organ dysfunction, impaired mucosal or skin barrier function, therapy with antacids or corticosteroids, prolonged stay at the ICU, total parenteral nutrition and prolonged antibiotic therapy. Among patients with invasive candidiasis, antifungal treatment should be started without delay. Antifungal prophylaxis is currently not recommended in critically ill, non-immunocompromised patients.
