Right-sided Infective Endocarditis with Ventricular Free Wall Vegetation Caused by Abiotrophia defectiva in a Patient with Unrepaired Ventricular Septal Defect.

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
To our knowledge, there have been no reports of right-sided infective endocarditis (RSIE) with ventricular free wall vegetation caused by Abiotrophia defectiva. We herein report a case of RSIE caused by A. defectiva with ventricular free wall vegetation in a 27-year-old man with ventricular septal defect (VSD). Computed tomography showed multiple bilateral pulmonary nodular shadows. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) demonstrated right ventricular free wall vegetation at the jet stream. Blood culture revealed A. defectiva. These findings are consistent with a diagnosis of infective endocarditis and septic pulmonary embolism. Treatment with ceftriaxone and gentamicin and subsequent surgical VSD closure improved the patient's condition without recurrence.
