Outcomes after surgery for infective endocarditis.
Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The role of surgery in infective endocarditis is becoming established the world over. In spite of all recent advances, endocarditis remains a lethal disease following surgery. With the emergence of more difficult-to-treat microorganisms, sicker and older patients with multiple co-morbidities, and an increase in healthcare-associated infections, the need for surgery in the management of infective endocarditis is only bound to increase. Data on the use of surgery in endocarditis till date is largely from observational data due to the relative rarity of the disease and variable practice patterns around the world. Hopefully, with increasing awareness and more inter-institutional and international collaborations, more robust data will emerge to further establish the role of surgery. For the time being, individual patient management will require the active multi-disciplinary approach of an endocarditis team to provide the best possible outcomes.
