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

The most common nosocomial fungal infections are caused by several species of Candida, of which Candida glabrata is the second most frequently isolated species from bloodstream infections. C. glabrata displays relatively high minimal inhibitory concentration values (MIC) to the antifungal fluconazole and is associated with high mortality rates. To decrease mortality rates, the appropriate treatment must be administered promptly. C. glabrata contains in its genome several non-identical copies of species-specific sequences. We designed three pairs of C. glabrata-specific primers for endpoint PCR amplification that align to these species-specific sequences and amplify the different copies in the genome. Using these primers, we developed a fast, sensitive, inexpensive, and highly specific PCR-based method to positively detect C. glabrata DNA in a concentration-dependent manner from mixes of purified genomic DNA of several Candida species, as well as from hemocultures and urine clinical samples. This tool can be used for positive identification of C. glabrata in the clinic.
