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

background and purposeOpportunistic fungal infections have been on a growing trend since the last two decades. Among the opportunistic fungal agents, MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study was conducted on 80 clinical samples collected from HIV-infected patients with suspected candidiasis referring to Tagore Medical College and Hospital, Rathinamangalam and Government Hospital of Thoracic Medicine, in Chennai, India, for 18 months (i.e., May 2016-December 2017). Phenotypic and molecular identification was accomplished using internal transcribed spacer region 1 (ITS1) and ITS4 primers. The antifungal susceptibility pattern of the isolates against four antifungal agents was also determined by both disk diffusion and broth dilution methods.

resultsIn the present study, the prevalence of candidiasis was obtained as 75% (n=60).
