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

Textbooks remain a primary source of reference and education for many health care professionals and students. This study assessed the mycology content in leading internal medicine and infectious diseases textbooks, revealing significant gaps across multiple areas. Infectious diseases textbooks demonstrated better coverage compared with internal medicine textbooks, highlighting the need for improved educational resources.
