Isolated tricuspid valve endocarditis - A rare entity and a surgeon's dilemma.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular and thoracic research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Isolated tricuspid valve endocarditis accounts for only 5 to 10 percent of infective endocarditis cases globally. Numerous surgical procedures ranging from simple vegetectomy, creation of neoleaflets or complete replacement by a prosthetic valve have been described. We aimed to evaluate our experience in surgical management of this entity and to formulate an approach for timing, appropriateness and extent of surgery. Patients operated on semi elective/emergency basis had adverse outcome with residual regurgitation and had longer ICU stay. Also, patients who required excision of leaflet and creation of neoleaflets had a higher incidence of regurgitation. This suggests that maximal preservation of native valve lessens the incidence of residual regurgitation. Simple vegetectomy and patch repair of the residual defect offers the best outcome.
