Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Percutaneous Aspiration and Debulking for Tricuspid Valve Endocarditis.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Right-sided infective endocarditis (IE) constitutes about 10% of total IE cases. Of these, tricuspid endocarditis comprises about 90% of all right-sided IE cases with intravenous drug use (IVDU) as its strongest risk factor. In patients with larger vegetations (>20 mm) or with persistent bacteremia, surgical intervention is often the standard of care. With FDA approval in 2014 and limited cases with regards to its application in tricuspid endocarditis, AngioVac (AngioDynamics, Latham, NY) has been used as a less invasive, off-label, bridging agent for tricuspid IE treatment. We present a case of a 40-year-old man with a past medical history of IVDU who presented with tricuspid endocarditis. His blood cultures were positive for methicillin-susceptible
