Predisposing factors of important invasive fungal coinfections in COVID-19 patients: a review article.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 has caused a devastating pandemic lasting for more than a year. To date, 47 million individuals have been infected and 1.2 million individuals have died worldwide. Some of the most important coinfections in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are opportunistic invasive fungal infections (OIFIs), which are sometimes not rapidly diagnosed and are often diagnosed after death. Aspergillosis and candidiasis are the most prevalent OIFIs in patients with COVID-19. Mycormycosis, cryptococcosis, and other fungal diseases have also been documented more rarely. This review aimed to summarize factors affecting COVID-19 transmission, prevalence, morbidity, and mortality in Iran as well as to review common OIFIs in patients with COVID-19. Immunological factors, underlying diseases, and social, cultural, and environmental factors can affect COVID-19 transmission. There is a need to improve diagnostic and therapeutic criteria for OIFIs and to optimize management procedures so that patients with OIFIs can receive treatment as rapidly as possible. Screening of patients with confirmed COVID-19 for OIFIs at the treating physician's discretion could enable early OIFI diagnosis, treatment, and mortality reduction.
