Candidemia in an Orthopedic Patient Detected Coincidentally by Peripheral Blood Smear.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
An elderly male, with a recent COVID-19 infection and cardiovascular comorbidities, experienced a prolonged hospitalization due to a periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and bacteremia, post hip hemiarthroplasty. Despite the initial clinical improvement while on targeted antimicrobial therapy, the patient later developed a low-grade fever and signs of myelosuppression. In the May-Grünwald-Giemsa stain of peripheral blood smear (PBS), pseudohyphae among red blood cells (RBCs) and phagocytosed blastospores in neutrophils and monocytes were detected, indicating candidemia rather than contamination of the stain. Echinocandin treatment was immediately initiated, and
