Infective Endocarditis Presenting as Rhabdomyolysis and Muscle Abscess: A Case Report.

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
Rhabdomyolysis is characterized by the degradation of skeletal muscle tissue, which releases cellular contents into circulation. This condition commonly stems from various factors, including trauma, overexertion, muscular hypoxia, infections, metabolic and electrolyte imbalances, certain medications, toxins, and genetic abnormalities. Despite this, instances of rhabdomyolysis precipitated by bacteremia of infective endocarditis remain exceedingly rare. This report describes an unusual case wherein infective endocarditis manifested as rhabdomyolysis, accompanied by a muscular abscess and acute renal failure. The patient's condition was successfully managed through hydration and targeted antibiotic therapy, leading to a favorable recovery. The case underscores the importance of vigilance for extracardiac symptoms and signs of infective endocarditis, such as rhabdomyolysis and muscular abscesses. Of particular note in this case was the discovery of an atypical causal bacterium,
