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

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of amphotericin B colloidal dispersion (ABCD) in treating invasive pulmonary fungal disease (IPFD) through nebulized inhalation combined with intravenous therapy. Methods: Patients diagnosed with IPFD who received ABCD from October 2023 to March 2024 were retrospectively enrolled. The treatment protocol for patient was determined by clinicians according to the patient's condition and clinical practice. According to the treatment protocol, patients were divided into two groups: the ABCD nebulized inhalation combined with intravenous injection (combined therapy group) and the ABCD intravenous injection (intravenous therapy group). Clinical characteristics, ABCD administration (dose and duration), treatment outcomes (favorable response rate), and adverse events (AEs) were compared between the two groups. Results: Thirty-two patients were included, with 16 in each group. No significant differences were observed in the clinical characteristics between the two groups. In the combined therapy group, the numbers of proven, probable, and possible cases were 4 (25.00%), 7 (43.75%), and 5 (31.25%), respectively. In the intravenous injection treatment group, 1 (6.25%), 11 (68.75%), and 4 (25.00%) patients were proven, probable, and possible, respectively. The total dose of ABCD was slightly lower in the combined therapy group than in the intravenous therapy group (1675 vs 1800, Conclusion: The efficacy of ABCD nebulized inhalation combined with intravenous injection was superior to intravenous injection of ABCD alone in the treatment of IPFD, with comparable safety and shortened medication time.
