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

Endocarditis is an inflammation of the endocardium and is characterized by the presence of vegetation, which may occur in the context of infectious or non-infectious diseases. Despite the higher rate of infective endocarditis diagnosis, it may also surge in other non-infectious conditions such as cancer or chronic inflammatory syndromes. Cancer defines a hypercoagulable state, and cancer-associated thrombophilia can have a diverse clinical presentation, most commonly venous thromboembolism and rarely non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE). The diagnosis of NBTE is difficult and requires a high level of suspicion. The treatment relies on anticoagulant therapy, control of underlying disease, and valve replacement when applied. Independently of the etiology, without treatment, endocarditis may lead to valve dysfunction and to the worst prognosis. In this paper, we describe a case of a patient with persistent fever and NBTE of the tricuspid valve, disclosing a rare presentation of gastric cancer.
