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

objectivesThis study aimed to analyze all the reported cases of definitive infective endocarditis, based on the modified Duke criteria in a tertiary hospital over the past five years, focusing on the causative organism/s, predisposing factors, and outcomes.

methodsThis is a cross-sectional retrospective study. Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of infective endocarditis using modified Duke criteria were included. The demographic data, predisposing factors, the causative microorganisms, laboratory and echocardiography results, and treatment were collected.

resultsIn total, 37 patients were identified, 22 were male, and the median age was 59 years. Native valve endocarditis was found in 29 (78.3%) patients. The most frequently involved valves were the mitral valve in eight (42.1%) and aortic valve in six (31.6%) patients. Fever occurred in 22 patients (59.5%). The most frequent organisms were
