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

Although the arsenal of agents with anti-Aspergillus activity has expanded over the last decade, mortality due to invasive aspergillosis remains unacceptably high. Resistance of the Aspergillus spp. species to antifungal drugs increased in the last 20 years with the increase in antifungal drugs use and might partially account for treatment failures. Recent advances in our understanding of mechanisms of antifungal drug action in Aspergillus, along with the standardization of in vitro susceptibility testing methods, have brought resistance testing to the forefront of clinical mycology. Recent modifications in taxonomy and understanding of the acquired resistance mechanisms of Aspergilli to drugs should support a better management of Aspergillus infections. In this paper, we review the current knowledge on epidemiology and underlying mechanisms involved in antifungal resistance in Aspergillus.
