Treatment of candiduria with micafungin: A case series.
Article in The Canadian journal of infectious diseases & medical microbiology = Journal canadien des maladies infectieuses et de la microbiologie medicale, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
There has been a gradual increase in the incidence of non-Candida albicans-related nosocomial infections. Candida glabrata urinary tract infections have increased in frequency, and treating these infections can be difficult because the organism may be resistant to fluconazole. A newer antifungal agent, micafungin, which belongs in the class of echinocandins, provides an alternative and effective therapy against C glabrata. The present report describes three cases of C glabrata-associated urinary tract infections successfully treated with micafungin. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of successful treatment of C glabrata and azole-resistant C albicans-associated urinary tract infection with an echinocandin.
