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

Rothia dentocariosa is a conditionally pathogenic bacterium that may cause infective endocarditis (IE) in selected patients and give rise to a variety of clinical complications, albeit it is not a common IE pathogen. We present the case of a patient diagnosed with Rothia dentocariosa-associated IE secondary to influenza B and thrombocytopenic purpura. The blood culture revealed Rochebacterium caries, cardiac ultrasound detected vegetation, while brain and spleen abscesses manifested and progressively deteriorated. Despite a suboptimal response to anti-infective therapy, the patient ultimately underwent aortic valve replacement. Discharge from the hospital was achieved upon control of the brain abscess and spleen abscess.
