A Case Report of Sepsis Post Cardiac Catheterization.
Article in Cureus, 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
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and cardiac catheterization are clean procedures done under aseptic precautions, but studies have shown transient bacteremia following the process, mostly involving Staphylococcus. This has many complications, from localized wounds at arterial access sites to endocarditis, mycotic aneurysm, and sepsis, and are associated with high mortality. These may require surgical intervention and prolonged antibiotic use. The risk of acquiring these infections is higher in femoral catheterization than in radial access. This risk also increases in patients with congestive cardiac failure, age 60 and above, and those with diabetes and obesity. Procedural hazards include multiple punctures and leaving the sheath for future access due to the needle tract's colonization. We present a case of sepsis presenting two days after PCI using single puncture radial access and a rapid downhill course.
