A Case of Native Mitral Valve Infective Endocarditis in a Chronic Dialysis Patient: The Importance of Vigilance.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This case involves native mitral valve infective endocarditis in a chronic hemodialysis patient resulting from a catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI). Infective endocarditis in dialysis patients is more common and is associated with higher mortality rates compared to non-dialysis patients. It is also a serious complication of tunneled dialysis catheter infections. The presentation and diagnosis of infective endocarditis in chronic dialysis patients can be challenging and may often be overlooked. This case highlights the importance of maintaining a strong clinical suspicion for infective endocarditis when such patients deteriorate from their baseline status or deviate from the expected response to appropriate treatment.
