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

Invasive aspergillosis generally occurs during the first 1-6 months after heart transplantation. It has been rarely seen in the first 2 weeks postcardiac transplant. We herein describe a unique case of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) diagnosed on day 9 postorthotopic heart transplantation. The known risk factors for IPA in cardiac transplant recipients were not identified in our case. The organ recipients from the same donor did not report Aspergillus infection. Hospital environmental samplings failed to demonstrate Aspergillus spores in the patient's room and his adjacent rooms. A diagnosis of early-onset de novo IPA was made. The patient initially received combined antifungal therapy (voriconazole plus micafungin), followed by voriconazole maintenance monotherapy with favorable clinical outcome.
