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: Angioinvasive Methods: Diagnosis of mucormycosis is often difficult using conventional methods that rely on broad-based non-septate hyphae present on histologic examination and morphological identification of the cultured organism. Our laboratory also uses an in-house panfungal molecular assay to rapidly diagnose invasive fungal infection when conventional methods do not provide definitive results. Results: Herein we present a case of disseminated mucormycosis with hepatosplenic involvement in a 49-year-old female with acute myelogenous leukemia following induction chemotherapy. But in this case repeated tissue biopsy cultures were negative. Conclusions: New molecular assays facilitate prompt diagnosis of invasive fungal infections.
