Candidemia in the intensive care unit before and during the COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional analysis.
Article in IJID regions, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: Increased incidences of candidemia have been reported among intensive care unit (ICU) patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The study included adult patients diagnosed with candidemia in the ICU during two periods from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2022, that were separated by the in-country declaration of COVID-19. We evaluated the incidences of candidemia during two periods marked by transformation of an old tertiary hospital into a completely new and modern facility, which took place just before the emergence of the pandemic. Results: During the pre-COVID-19 and COVID-19 periods, 3796 and 10,467 patients were admitted to the ICU, of whom 61 (1.6%, incidence 2.03 per 1000 ICU-days) and 62 (0.6%, incidence 0.66 per 1000 ICU-days) patients developed candidemia, respectively. The median time to candidemia detection was significantly longer in the COVID-19 period (34 vs 29 days, Conclusions: Despite reports on increased incidences of candidemia among ICU patients during the COVID-19 period, lower incidences of candidemia found in the present study both during the COVID-19 period and among COVID-19 patients may be attributed to the complete transformation of our facility.
