Fungal diagnostic testing and therapy: navigating the neutropenic period in children with high-risk leukemia.
Review in Hematology. American Society of Hematology. Education Program, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Children, adolescents, and young adults receiving intensive chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk or relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia sustain prolonged periods of neutropenia that predispose them to invasive fungal disease (IFD). For many decades the standard of care for these patients was to initiate empirical antifungal therapy after a period of prolonged fever and neutropenia. Recent publications have yielded important evidence on the utility of different diagnostic and therapeutic approaches aimed at reducing the impact of IFD among these patients during these vulnerable periods. This case-based review highlights and interprets the published data to provide context for the IFD diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations proposed in multiple published guidelines. Personalized approaches are offered at points where evidence is lacking. Time points where specific knowledge gaps exist are identified along the clinical trajectory of the prolonged neutropenic period to illustrate areas for future investigation.
