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

backgroundOral candidiasis is a prevalent opportunistic infection, predominantly caused by

methodsA retrospective review of 1286 electronic patient medical records (788 women, 498 men) from 2018 to 2022 was conducted at the Department of Periodontal and Oral Mucosa Diseases, Medical University of Silesia. Swabs from the oral cavity were processed to identify

resultsAmong 958 patients with positive fungal cultures,

conclusionsThis retrospective analysis highlights the growing prevalence of NAC, rising antifungal resistance (particularly to azoles), and the importance of identifying risk factors, especially denture use and poor glycemic control. Enhanced preventive strategies, robust diagnostic approaches, and optimized antifungal regimens are essential to address this evolving clinical challenge.
