Kodameae ohmeri - An Emerging Yeast: Two Cases and Literature Review.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 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
Kodameae ohmeri is an emerging pathogen in various types of infections. Most infections are seen in patients with compromised immunity like cancer patients. Few cases of neonatal infections due to K. ohmeri have been reported earlier in premature neonates with fatal outcomes. We report two cases of fungemia; the first case was a patient with hematological malignancy, who complained of fever spikes and grew K. ohmeri in blood despite prophylactic voriconazole therapy. The second case was in a mature neonate, who developed respiratory distress and features of sepsis two days after birth, multiple blood cultures were positive for K. ohmeri. Both the patients responded well to Amphotericin B. Repeat blood cultures were sterile and patients were discharged. K. ohmeri is an unusual and emerging fungal pathogen of late an increasing number of cases of fungemia, funguria, endocarditis, peritonitis and wound infections due to the same are being reported. Some occur in immunocompromised patients and some inapparently immunocompetent patients, neonates with an inclination for preterm babies. We report two case of fungemia, one with lymphoma and the second in a neonate.
