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

Nonvalvular intravascular devices are in widespread use in developed countries and are now more commonly employed than are prosthetic cardiac valves. Although the variety of devices that are included in the category of "nonvalvular" represent a heterogenous collection, there is commonality among several of the devices. This includes their requirement to sustain life and the need for removal for cure if they become infected, which is often due to multidrug-resistant microorganisms. Thus, infection of these devices often presents difficult treatment scenarios. This update will address the pathogenesis and immunobiology of nonvalvular intravascular device-related infections and the epidemiology and treatment of infections of several of these devices that include pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators, intravascular catheters, vascular grafts and stents, and left ventricular assist devices.
