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

Streptococcus anginosus (S. anginosus) is a subgroup of viridans streptococci that tend to form a deep-seated abscess. These bacteria can be part of healthy human flora and commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract and oral cavity. Infective endocarditis is most commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus. Among the Streptococcus group, anginosus is extremely rare to cause endocarditis, and there are only a few case reports available. We present a patient with S. anginosus bacteremia who subsequently got diagnosed with metastatic colon cancer along with aortic and mitral valve endocarditis.
