Infective Endocarditis Caused by Staphylococcus lugdunensis.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. 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
Staphylococcus lugdunensis, a minor species of coagulase-negative staphylococci, has attracted attention because of its formidable pathogenicity. We present a case of infective endocarditis (IE) caused by S. lugdunensis in a 72-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer and metastases who presented with fever. Two of two blood culture bottles were positive for gram-positive cocci. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed vegetation attached to the right cusp of the aortic valve and an abscess in the annulus, which was less evident on transthoracic echocardiography. This case underscores the importance of considering S. lugdunensis as a potential cause of IE.
