Impact of Operative Timing in Infective Endocarditis with Cerebral Embolism-The Risk of Intermediate Deterioration.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Cerebral embolism due to infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The optimal time-interval between symptomatic stroke and cardiac surgery remains unclear. This study aimed to analyze the patients' outcomes and define the potential risk factors with regard to surgical timing for IE patients with preoperative symptomatic cerebral embolism (CE). A total of 119 IE patients with CE were identified and analyzed with regard to operative timing: early (1-7 days), intermediate (8-21 days), and late (>22 days). The preoperative patient data, comorbidities and previous cardiac surgical procedures were analyzed to identify potential predictors and independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality using univariate and multivariate regression analysis. Actuarial survival was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. In-hospital mortality for the entire study cohort was 15.1% (
