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

Severe hemoptysis is the fatal complication of invasive pulmonary fungal infection (IPFI) in patients with hematologic diseases. This report retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of nine IPFI patients with hematologic diseases complicated with severe hemoptysis. Four in nine patients were diagnosed of proven IPFI, probable was established in two and the remaining were diagnosed of possible. Seven patients did not respond to the primary treatment, and four of them also did not respond to the salvage therapy. In these nine patients, seven presented massive hemoptysis and all died of that; other two patients presented severe hemoptysis. The result indicates that ineffective initial treatment and irregular therapy may underlie the concurrence of massive hemoptysis. The prognosis of IPFI patients with massive hemoptysis is very poor. Special attention for IPFI treatment should be prophylaxis, early management as well as sufficient and a whole course administration of effective broad-spectrum antifungal agents.
