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

Early diagnosis of mucormycosis would be greatly facilitated by identification of a non-invasive biomarker for infection. This study evaluated whether detection of Mucorales mannan in serum or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) can serve as such a biomarker. To date, mannan has been found in body fluids of invasive disease caused by many ascomycetous fungal pathogens, but its presence has not been evaluated for disease-producing members of the Mucorales. We utilized a monoclonal antibody (mAb) that is reactive with Mucorales mannan to construct a lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) containing labeled europium nanoparticles as the detector reagent. Analytical inclusivity studies found that the LFA detected mannans from four of the five disease-producing Mucorales fungi. No cross-reactivity was observed with purified mannans from other major causes of invasive fungal infection, i.e.
