Septic pulmonary and systemic embolism in tricuspid endocarditis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
A 28-year-old woman presenting with fever was referred to our hospital and diagnosed as septic pulmonary embolism secondary to tricuspid valve endocarditis. Although antibiotic therapy was initiated, she further showed multiple complications including Janeway lesions and cerebral infarctions, suggestive of septic systemic embolism. Transoesophageal echocardiography detected a right-to-left shunt through a patent foramen ovale (PFO). The patient was successfully treated with surgical tricuspid valvuloplasty and PFO closure. Paradoxical systemic embolism may occur in patients with septic pulmonary embolism through the PFO.
