Investigation of fungal nosocomial infections and antimicrobial drug resistance pattern after open-heart surgery; a cross-sectional study.

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: Nosocomial fungal infections are a significant cause of mortality in hospitalized patients, particularly those with immune system defects. Surgical site infections (SSIs) following open-heart procedures cause significant problems for patients and treatment systems. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed wound culture samples from the sternum, urine cultures, blood cultures, and cultures from catheters of 310 hospitalized patients (mean age: 42 ± 10.23 years), collected between March 2018 and February 2022. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were conducted using the Kirby-Bauer diffusion disk method. We assessed antimicrobial resistance alongside laboratory indicators related to infections. Results: The highest rate of infection was urinary tract infection (13.54%) septicemia (10%), pneumonia (4.83%), SSIs (3.87%), and catheter-induced infection (1.29%), respectively. The mortality rate was 6.4%. All fungal strains were Conclusions: The non
