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
Candida albicans is the most frequently isolated fungal species in hospital settings worldwide. However, non-albicans Candida species with decreased susceptibility to antifungals have emerged as an important cause of fungemia. The aims of this study were to determine the species distribution of fungi isolated from the blood samples of patients at a Swedish University Hospital and to define the in vitro susceptibilities of these isolates to nine antifungal agents. In total, 233 yeast isolates from 143 patients were included in this study. Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed using broth dilution Sensititre YeastOne panels, which comprised amphotericin B, 5-flucytosine, fluconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, anidulafungin, micafungin, and caspofungin. The most common species in all age groups was C. albicans (n = 93, 65%), followed by C. glabrata (n = 27, 19%) and C. parapsilosis (n = 15, 10%). C. glabrata was mostly found in elderly individuals, while C. parapsilosis was found mainly in young children (p = 0.008). Antifungal resistance was low in the Candida species, except for reduced susceptibility to fluconazole among C. glabrata strains. C. albicans is the most frequent colonizer of Swedish patients. In general antifungal resistance is uncommon in Candida species. Nevertheless, reduced susceptibilities to fluconazole and echinocandins were found in C. glabrata and C. parapsilosis, respectively.
