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: Isolated pulmonic valve endocarditis is a rare heart valve infection, and constitutes about 1% to 2% of all infective endocarditis cases. Modified Duke's criteria were used to diagnose culture negative pulmonic valve endocarditis. Case presentation: A 52-year-old male patient presented with generalized body swelling of 1 month duration associated with prolonged fever, malaise, fatigue, and lassitude. He had productive cough, dyspnea on mild exertion, and reddish discoloration of urine. Upon physical examination, blood pressure (BP) = 140/90 mmHg, pulse rate (PR) = 104 beats per minute, respiratory rate (RR) = 26 breaths per minute, temperature (T Conclusion: Modified Duke's criteria could play a major role in the management decision about diagnosis and empiric treatment of infective endocarditis in the absence of positive bacterial cultures.
