A case of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia with invasive candidiasis: short review.
Article in Indian journal of hematology & blood transfusion : an official journal of Indian Society of Hematology and Blood Transfusion, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Mortality rate associated with invasive fungal infections is very high. Early suspicion for fungal infections is important during intensive chemotherapy for acute leukemia. Empirical treatment with antifungals amphotericin B or caspofungin should be started if patient is not responding to broad spectrum antibiotics and if expected duration of neutropenia is prolonged. We are reporting a 3 years old girl child with diagnosis of pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia who developed invasive candidiasis with typical clinical and radiological findings during induction chemotherapy. Candida non-albicans was isolated and she was treated with amphotericin B followed by caspofungin. Patient deteriorated after initial response and succumbed to death. Species identification and sensitivity pattern of fungus can help in selecting appropriate antifungal drug.
