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

backgroundAbnormal activity of

methodsAll patients (n = 27) hospitalized in our tertiary IE referral medical center from January 2014 to October 2018 with preoperatively performed

resultsPatients with surgically confirmed abscess formation (n = 10) had significantly increased MV (by ~ fivefold) and TLG (by ~ sevenfold) as compared to patients without abscess (n = 17). Receiver operation characteristics (ROC) analyses demonstrated that TLG (calculated as MV × SURmean, i.e. TLG (SUR)) had the most favorable area under the ROC curve (0.841 [CI 0.659 to 1.000]) in predicting IE-related abscess formation. This resulted in a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 88% at a cut-off value of 14.14 mL for TLG (SUR).
