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

backgroundInvasive mucormycosis (IM) poses a substantial morbidity and mortality burden among immunocompromised patients.

objectivesWe aim to compare the real-world effectiveness and safety of isavuconazole with those of amphotericin B in patients with IM. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn this observational cohort study, we enrolled patients who were diagnosed with IM and treated with either isavuconazole or amphotericin B.

resultsA total of 106 patients met the study criteria. Of these, 47 received isavuconazole, and 59 received amphotericin B as the primary treatment. The two cohorts had similar baseline characteristics, including a history of malignancy, use of immunosuppressants, infection sites, and pathogens. The amphotericin B group demonstrated a significantly greater incidence of renal disorders (

conclusionsIsavuconazole outperformed amphotericin B as a first-line treatment option for IM in terms of its clinical effectiveness and safety.
