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

purposeSurgical therapy of infective endocarditis (IE) is challenging and can be associated with high mortality. In this study, we present the early outcomes of patients who underwent cardiac surgery for IE.

methodsFrom 2017 until 2019, 66 patients underwent surgical treatment for IE.

resultsThirty-day mortality was 17% (

conclusionSurgical treatment for IE still remains a challenge with high morbidity and mortality. Patients with preoperative neurologic dysfunction due to septic embolism have good early postoperative results without increased mortality.
