Clinical Features and Mortality Rate of Infective Endocarditis in Intensive Care Unit: A Large-Scale Study and Literature Review.
Review in Anatolian journal of cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
backgroundLarge-scale multicentric studies reported that, despite advances in diagnosis, antibiotics, and surgical treatment, infective endocarditis (IE) in-hospital mortality remains high. Most data have been obtained from patients treated in infective disease wards, internal medicine, cardiology, or cardiac surgery departments and are therefore heterogeneous. The few studies focused on complicated IE patients leading to intensive care unit (ICU) admission have reported different methodologies and results. The aim of our study was to describe the epidemiological, clinical, and microbial features of critically ill patients admitted to the ICU with a definite IE diagnosis.
methodsWe conducted a prospective case-series population study from January 1, 1998, to December 31, 2020. Patients were divided into 2 groups: 'Ward' (group 1) and 'ICU' patients (group 2), and a 1-year follow-up was performed.
resultsAfter performing a univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, we found that the independent predictors of ICU admission were vegetation diameter >10 mm, abnormal PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and acute heart failure. Five independent mortality risk factors were identified: SOFA score >14, not performing surgery, age >70 years, acute heart failure, and embolic complications.
conclusionsInfective endocarditis in-hospital mortality remains high. ICU admission and mortality can be predicted by independent risk factors.
