Candida species bloodstream infections in hospitalised children: A 10-year experience.
Article in Journal of paediatrics and child health, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
In a 10-year retrospective study we assessed the epidemiology of candidemia and the association between the presence and removal of indwelling central venous catheters, antifungal use and clinical outcomes among hospitalised children. Demographic and clinical information were retrieved from the electronic medical records. One hundred six episodes of candidemia were identified in 83 unique patients. Candida parapsilosis was the most prevalent (52%) species, followed by C. albicans (25%). Non-oncologic children receiving fluconazole within 30 days of developing candidemia were most likely to develop C. parapsilosis infection (40%, P = 0.006), independent of total parenteral nutrition (odds ratio (OR) 2.5, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.6-11, P = 0.3). Crude mortality rate was 12% and significantly higher for children less than 2 years (OR: 6.7, 95% CI: 1.9-23, P = 0.003), and those infected with C. lusitaniae (OR: 9, 95% CI: 1.6-51, P = 0.02). The aggregate use of antifungal agents decreased overtime (χ(2) : 16.7, P < 0.0001). Fluconazole remained the most common antifungal agent used during the study.
