Empiric Antifungal Therapy for Intra-Abdominal Post-Surgical Abscesses in Non-ICU Patients.
Article in Antibiotics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 role of empiric antifungals for post-surgical abscesses (PSAs) is controversial, and international guidelines on invasive mycoses focus on bloodstream infections. We analyzed a retrospective cohort of 319 patients with PSA at a tertiary-level hospital in Italy during the years 2013-2018. Factors associated with empiric antifungal administration were analyzed and compared with factors associated with fungal isolation from the abdomen. Forty-six patients (14.4%) received empiric antifungals (65.2% azoles).
