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 and Purpose: Given the high mortality rate of invasive candidiasis in hospitalized pediatric patients, it is crucial to establish a predictive system to achieve early diagnosis and treatment of patients who are likely to benefit from early antifungal treatment. This study aimed to assess the Materials and Methods: This study was carried out at the Children's Medical Center in Tehran-Iran. In total, 661 samples were collected from 83 patients. The Results: A colonization index greater than 0.5 was confirmed in 29 cases (58% of positive samples) with two children developing candidemia. Conclusion: In pediatric intensive care units, patients are at risk of fungal infection, particularly candidemia. In this study, more than half of the children with positive yeast cultures had CI > 0.5, and 6.8% developed candidemia.
