Infective Endocarditis after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Challenges in the Diagnosis and Management.
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Although initially conceived for high-risk patients who are ineligible for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now recommended in a wider spectrum of indications, including among young patients. However, similar to SAVR, TAVR is also associated with a risk of infectious complications, namely, prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE). As the number of performed TAVR procedures increases, and despite the low incidence of PVE post-TAVR, clinicians should be familiar with its associated risk factors and clinical presentation. Whereas the diagnosis of native valve endocarditis can be achieved straightforwardly by applying the modified Duke criteria, the diagnosis of PVE is more challenging given its atypical symptoms, the lower sensitivity of the criteria involved, and the low diagnostic yield of conventional echocardiography. Delay in proper management can be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, clinicians should have a high index of suspicion and initiate proper work-up according to the severity of the illness, the underlying host, and the local epidemiology of the causative organisms. The most common causative pathogens are Gram-positive bacteria such as
