Implication of genotypes for prognosis of Candida glabrata bloodstream infections.

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
backgroundGenotyping isolates of a specific pathogen may demonstrate unique patterns of antimicrobial resistance, virulence or outcomes. However, evidence for genotype-outcome association in Candida glabrata is scarce. We aimed to characterize the mycological and clinical relevance of genotypes on C. glabrata bloodstream infections (BSIs).
methodsNon-duplicated C. glabrata blood isolates from hospitalized adults were genotyped by MLST, and further clustered by the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA). A clonal complex (CC) was defined by UPGMA similarities of >90%. Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed by a colorimetric microdilution method and interpreted following CLSI criteria.
resultsOf 48 blood isolates evaluated, 13 STs were identified. CC7 was the leading CC (n = 14; 29.2%), including 13 ST7. The overall fluconazole and echinocandin resistance rates were 6.6% and 0%, respectively. No specific resistance patterns were associated with CC7 or other CCs. Charlson comorbidity index (adjusted OR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.05-3.11) was the only predictor for CC7. By multivariable Cox regression analyses, CC7 was independently associated with 28 day mortality [adjusted HR (aHR), 3.28; 95% CI, 1.31-8.23], even after considering potential interaction with neutropenia (aHR, 3.41; 95% CI, 1.23-9.42; P for interaction, 0.24) or limited to 34 patients with monomicrobial BSIs (aHR, 2.85; 95% CI, 1.15-7.08). Also, the Kaplan-Meier estimate showed greater mortality with CC7 (P = 0.003). Fluconazole resistance or echinocandin therapy had no significant impact on mortality.
conclusionsOur data suggested comorbid patients were at risk of developing CC7 BSIs. Further, CC7 was independently associated with worse outcomes.
