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 incidence of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in non-neutropenic patients is increasing. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and risk factors for mortality in non-neutropenic IPA patients. We conducted a prospective, multicenter study from August 2020 to February 2024, enrolling 565 patients with suspected IPA. The study cohort comprised 195 IPA (non-neutropenic) cases and 370 non-IPA cases. Peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) specimens were collected to measure pentraxin-3 (PTX3) levels. Additionally, demographic data, clinical characteristics, and antifungal therapy of each patient were recorded. We analyzed factors associated with 30- and 90-day mortality. IPA patients exhibited higher mortality rates compared to non-IPA patients, with 30-day rates of 26.15% versus 8.38% (
