Computed Tomography in Infectious Endocarditis.
Review in Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Imaging is one of the cornerstones in diagnosis and management of infective endocarditis, underlined by recent guidelines. Echocardiography is the first-line imaging technique, however, computed tomography (CT) has a class I recommendation in native and prosthetic valve endocarditis to detect valvular lesions in case of possible endocarditis and to detect paravalvular and periprosthetic complications in case of inconclusive echocardiography. Echocardiography has a higher diagnostic accuracy than CT in detecting valvular lesions, but not for diagnosing paravalvular lesions where CT is superior. Additionally, CT is useful and recommended by guidelines to detect extracardiac manifestations of endocarditis and in planning surgical treatment including assessment of the coronary arteries. The advent of photon-counting CT and its improved spatial resolution and spectral imaging is expected to expand the role of CT in the diagnosis of infective endocarditis. In this review, we provide an overview of the current role of CT in infective endocarditis focusing on image acquisition, image reconstruction, interpretation, and diagnostic accuracy.
