Adherence to National Consensus Guidelines and Association with Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Candidemia.
Article in Infectious diseases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundNational consensus guidelines outline recommendations for best practices in treating patients with candidemia. This study evaluated the impact of receiving care adherent to the best practice recommendations on clinical outcomes in patients with candidemia.
methodsThis retrospective, multicenter study included patients with candidemia from 2010 to 2015 at 9 hospitals. The primary outcome was the composite of 30-day in-hospital mortality and 90-day candidemia recurrence. Outcomes were compared between those receiving and not receiving care adherent to the guideline recommendations. Inverse probability weights with regression adjustment were utilized to determine the average treatment effect of adherent care on the composite outcome.
results295 patients were included with 14.2% meeting criteria for the composite outcome (11.9% mortality and 2.4% recurrence). The average treatment effect of adherent care was not significant (
conclusionsCentral venous catheter removal and appropriate initial antifungal treatment were associated with a lower incidence of the composite of mortality and recurrence. Additional studies are needed to determine the optimal duration of therapy following candidemia clearance.
