1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: The role of suppressive antimicrobial therapy (SAT) in infective endocarditis (IE) management has yet to be defined. The objective of this study was to describe the use of SAT in an IE referral center and the patients' outcomes. Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study in a French IE referral center (Paris). All patients with IE who received SAT between 2016 and 2022 were included. Results: Forty-two patients were included (36 male [86%]; median age [interquartile range {IQR}], 73 [61-82] years). The median Charlson Comorbidity Index score (IQR) was 3 (1-4). Forty patients (95%) had an intracardiac device. The most frequent microorganisms were Conclusions: SAT was mainly prescribed to patients with cardiac devices because of the absence of surgery despite clinical indication. Five (12%) breakthrough second IE episodes were reported. Prospective comparative studies are required to guide this empirical practice.
