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

backgroundIn catheter-related candidemia, a true catheter-source infection is often difficult to distinguish from a catheter that merely marks critical illness. Our primary aim was to identify predictors of 30-day mortality; secondary aims were to characterize species-specific patterns of persistent candidemia, its prognostic meaning within the host immune-inflammatory context, and the relationship between echinocandin therapy and secondary bacterial bloodstream infection (BSI).

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 89 consecutive episodes of catheter-related candidemia at Bursa City Hospital (2021-2025). Catheter association required

resultsThirty-day mortality was 53.9% (48/89). The multivariable model was significant (LR χ

conclusionsMortality could not be explained by antifungal choice alone; these findings are exploratory. Host response, source control, species distribution, survival time, and device exposure are possible contributing factors warranting evaluation in prospective studies.
