Current trends in the molecular diagnosis of infective endocarditis.
Review in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
The introduction of molecular methods into biomedical science, particularly nucleic acid amplification techniques including the polymerase chain reaction, has significantly improved the diagnosis of several diseases. Likewise, the adoption of such molecular techniques to aid in the detection and identification of causal organisms in patients with infective endocarditis (IE) has been particularly beneficial in cases of difficult, atypical or culture-negative IE. Several different molecular approaches have been suggested for the diagnosis of IE, including variations in the type of cardiological specimens examined, nucleic acid extraction, gene target and molecular platform, each presenting their own advantages and disadvantages. This review examines the molecular approach to the detection and identification of causal agents of IE and provides details and a discussion of the application of such methods, particularly those implemented over the last 7 years.
