In-hospital outcomes of patients undergoing emergent surgical treatment in patients with infective endocarditis.

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
backgroundInfective endocarditis is a serious heart disease that may cause several different clinical conditions and can need urgent surgical therapy. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the patients with infective endocarditis undergoing acute surgical treatment results in-hospital mortality.
methodsA total of 107 consecutive patients with infective endocarditis undergoing acute surgical therapy were included in our retrospective study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of in-hospital mortality as Group 1 without in-hospital mortality (n=89) and Group 2 with in-hospital mortality (n=18). The demographic, laboratory, and clinical parameters were evaluated in both groups.
resultsThe mean age (50±14; 64±14, P<0.001) and the incidence of chronic renal failure (9 [10.1%]; 8 [44.4%], P=0.001) were higher in Group 2 while the ejection fraction was lower in Group 2 (50.0±9.3; 44.6±12.9, P=0.039). The incidence of positive blood culture was also higher in Group 2 (41 [46.1]; 14 [77.8], P=0.014). Aortic bioprosthesis operation (2 [2.2]; 6 [33.3], P<0.001) and mitral bioprosthesis operation (4 [4.5]; 5 [27.8], P=0.008) were higher in Group 2 as well as the incidence of septic shock was also higher in Group 2 (1 [1.1]; 3 [16.7], P=0.015). In addition, in multivariate logistic regression analyses, advanced age (odds ratio [OR]: 1.068, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.009-1.130, P: 0.024) and positive blood culture (OR: 4.436, 95% CI: 1.044-18.848, P: 0.044) were found to be independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.
conclusionAdvanced age, lower ejection fraction, high creatinine, positive blood culture, high systolic pulmonary artery pressure, and septic shock predicted in-hospital death in patients who have undergone emergent or urgent surgery due to infective endocarditis.
