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 landscape of invasive Candida infections in patients with hematologic malignancy has evolved due to the adoption of anti-fungal prophylaxis, advances in oncological therapies, and developments in antifungal therapies and diagnostics. Despite these scientific gains, the morbidity and mortality caused by these infections remain unchanged, highlighting the importance of an updated understanding of its epidemiology. Non-albicans Candida species are now the predominant cause of invasive candidiasis in patients with hematological malignancy. This epidemiological shift from Candida albicans to non-albicans Candida species is partially a consequence of selective pressure from extensive azole use. Further analysis of this trend suggests other contributing factors including immunocompromise caused by the underlying hematologic malignancy and the intensity of its associated treatments, oncological practices, and regional or institution specific variables. This review characterizes the changing distribution of Candida species in patients with hematologic malignancy, describes the causes driving this change, and discusses clinical considerations to optimize management in this high-risk patient population.
