Review in Medizinische Klinik (Munich, Germany : 1983), 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundInfections are the major cause for treatment failure in acute leukemias. They mostly present as fever of unknown origin (FUO), a smaller but prognostically unfavorable group are pneumonias. The effective management of infectious complications requires a symptom and response adapted interventional strategy. THERAPEUTICAL APPROACH: In case of FUO standard therapy consists of the two drug combination of aminoglycoside plus acylaminopenicillin or third generation cephalosporine. In case of non-response carbapenems and a glycopeptide should be applied and a systemic antifungal treatment must be initiated. In pneumonia amphotericin B should be added to antibiotics already initially. Potent single agents with a broad spectrum of activity as well as new antifungal drugs provide attractive perspectives for future evaluations.
conclusionsBy a consequent step-wise oscalating interventional treatment strategy infections in patients with acute leukemias can be successfully treated.
