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

A 62-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department due to fever and acute heart failure. A transthoracic echocardiogram revealed severe aortic valve obstruction. He was an hepatic transplant recipient and was medicated with everolimus. He underwent mitral and aortic valve replacement with prosthetic valves 4 years ago. Due to his medical background, therapy and clinical presentation, empirical therapy for infective endocarditis was started. Transoesophageal echocardiogram showed severe aortic valve regurgitation but no other findings suggestive of endocarditis. Computed tomography (CT) revealed pulmonary infiltrates compatible with infection and no evidence of septic embolisation. Multiple sets of blood cultures were negative.
