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

This case report describes the findings of septic pulmonary embolism (SPE) in a young adult male with a history of intravenous drug use who initially presented with signs and symptoms of acute sepsis. The patient underwent evaluation by computed tomography (CT) imaging as well as blood cultures and echocardiography, which confirmed the diagnosis of SPE secondary to Staphylococcus aureus positive bacterial endocarditis. In this case report, we discuss the presentation and characteristic CT imaging findings of SPE as well as highlight the value of this imaging modality in the timely diagnosis and management of this urgent condition.
