Plasmalyte: No Longer a Culprit in Causing False-Positive Galactomannan Test Results.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
False-positive galactomannan (GM) results have been reported in patients treated with gluconate-containing solutions, such as Plasmalyte. The GM optical density index was tested on 33 distinct batches of Plasmalyte and was found to be negative in all of the batches, confirming that Plasmalyte is no longer a cause of false-positive GM results.
