Blood Culture-negative Endocarditis Caused by
Article in European journal of case reports in internal medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
case descriptionA 67-year-old man was admitted with progressive heart failure due to blood culture-negative endocarditis of the aortic valve. Urgent aortic valve replacement was needed. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of samples of the explanted aortic valve revealed
conclusionWhipple's endocarditis should be considered in patients with arthralgia and blood culture-negative endocarditis (BCNIE). LEARNING POINTS: Whipple's endocarditis should be considered in patients with symptoms of arthralgia and blood culture-negative endocarditis (BCNIE).Serum polymerase chain reaction is the main diagnostic test.Both physician awareness and multidisciplinary management by regional endocarditis teams are recommended strategies to provide optimal patient care.
