EpiCandIn: An open online resource for epidemiology of Candida infections in India.
Article in The Indian journal of medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background & objectives Candida spp. cause candidiasis in humans under conditions disrupting the host defence. While Candida albicans is the most reported cause of candidiasis, there is a surge in the incidence of infections by non-albicans Candida species (NACs), such as C. tropicalis, C. glabrata and C. auris. These species can infect all organs of the human body. To effectively manage these outbreaks, it is important to track the epidemiology of candidiasis. A consolidated resource describing the landscape of candidiasis in India is absent. Methods To address this gap, we have developed an online resource named Epidemiology of Candida Infections in India (EpiCandIn) by manually curating published literature on Candida infections in the Indian population obtained from PubMed and ScienceDirect databases. Results EpiCandIn contains data available since 1972 from 51 sites across 16 States and four Union Territories of India. It provides information on geographical location, Candida species, niche affected, disease characteristics and drug therapy details extracted from the publications. This resource is integrated with visualization tools. Interpretation & conclusions EpiCandIn will be useful for public health researchers and policymakers as it will help them gain insights into the emerging trends and management of Candida infections in India. It can be accessed at epicandin.bicnirrh.res.in.
