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

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with invasive fungal infection. Several COVID-19 cases were complicated due to coinfection with Case Presentation: A male patient presented with fever, cough, severe shortness of breath, and abdominal pain that persisted for a week. The patient was admitted to the ICU. The patient was diabetic and hypertensive, and COVID-19 pneumonia was confirmed. The patient became septic, and his blood culture was positive for Conclusions: Invasive fungal infections are characterized by high mortality. Early diagnosis to the species level is essential for successful treatment.
