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

abstractTrichosporon species are emerging opportunistic pathogens capable of causing a spectrum of disease, from superficial skin infections to deep-seated, disseminated, and life-threatening infections. These infections are often challenging to diagnose due to their rarity, frequent misidentification as Candida , and intrinsic resistance to conventional antifungal therapies, resulting in delays in appropriate management. We report a case series of Trichosporon fungemia in six critically ill patients, highlighting varied clinical presentations. Common comorbidities included diabetes mellitus, hypertension, anemia, hypothyroidism, sepsis, multiorgan dysfunction, and complications related to indwelling devices. All cases had blood culture-confirmed Trichosporon fungemia. The overall mortality was 66.7% (4/6 cases). Our findings emphasize the importance of early recognition, prompt antifungal therapy, and strict infection control measures to improve outcomes in high-risk patients.
