Aerococcus Urinae Endocarditis: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
A 75-year-old male, with a past medical history of chronic kidney disease stage 3 (CKD3) and a recent diagnosis of bilateral hydronephrosis and Foley catheter placement, presented to the emergency department for fever. Blood cultures grew Aerococcus urinae. Transthoracic echo (TTE) demonstrated thickened aortic valve leaflets with perforation, multiple echo densities, and severe aortic regurgitation. The patient developed decompensated congestive heart failure and cardiogenic shock. En route to surgery for emergent aortic valve replacement, the patient lost pulse and was resuscitated. The patient was subsequently transferred to the ICU where the family decided to initiate comfort care measures. This case highlights the importance and necessity of the prompt diagnosis and treatment of infective endocarditis and makes the reader aware of uncommon and rare organisms, such as Aerococcus urinae, as potential etiologies.
