Embolic Events in Infective Endocarditis: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life-threating entity with three main complications: heart failure (HF), uncontrolled infection (UI) and embolic events (EEs). HF and UI are the main indications of cardiac surgery and have been studied thoroughly. On the other hand, much more uncertainty surrounds EEs, which have an abrupt and somewhat unpredictable behaviour. EEs in the setting of IE have unique characteristics that must be explored, such as the potential of hemorrhagic transformation of stroke. Accurately predicting which patients will suffer EEs seems to be pivotal to achieve an optimal management of the disease, but this complex process is still not completely understood. The indication of cardiac surgery in order to prevent EEs in the absence of HF or UI is in question as scientific evidence is controversial and mainly of a retrospective nature. This revision addresses these topics and try to summarize the evidence and recommendations about them.
