In-Hospital Mortality from Spondylodiscitis: Insights from a Single-Center Retrospective Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
(1) Background: There is a marked proportion of spondylodiscitis patients who die during the early stage of the disease despite the applied therapy. This study investigates this early mortality and explores the associated risk factors. (2) Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of spondylodiscitis patients treated at our Level I spine center between 1 January 2018 and 31 December 2022. (3) Results: Among 430 patients, 32 (7.4%) died during their hospital stay, with a median time of 28.5 days (range: 2.0-84.0 days). Six of these patients (18.75%) did not undergo surgery due to dire clinical conditions or death prior to scheduled surgery. Identified causes of in-hospital death included multiorgan failure (
