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

Background: Cerebral mycotic aneurysms represent a rare but life-threatening complication of infective endocarditis (IE), with high mortality rate when ruptured. Due to the lack of randomized controlled trials, management of infectious aneurysms complicating endocarditis remains a controversial topic. Case summary: We describe a case of Discussion: Clinicians should be mindful of the rare, potentially severe complication of IE with cerebral mycotic aneurysms to enable prompt treatment. Generally, central nervous system procedures are performed prior to cardiac surgical management of IE, since cardiopulmonary bypass may exacerbate cerebral haemorrhage, ischaemic damage, and oedema in areas of blood-brain barrier disruption. A multidisciplinary collaboration is crucial for optimal patient management.
