Lingual artery thrombosis as a presentation of infective endocarditis in a pregnant patient: a case report.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Infective endocarditis during pregnancy is a rare condition that compromises the health of both the mother and the foetus, presenting high rates of morbidity and mortality. The clinical manifestations of this disease are varied, with embolic phenomena being a frequent presentation. Case summary: We report the case of a Hispanic 37-year-old patient, at 29 weeks of pregnancy, with no known cardiovascular history, who presented with 48 h of sudden mandibular and lingual pain. The study showed acute thrombosis of the right lingual artery and the rest of the right external carotid artery. In this context, searching for the origin of the embolism, acute mitral valve endocarditis was diagnosed, which was effectively treated with antibiotic therapy and biological mitral valve replacement, as well as early delivery. Discussion: We report the first case where lingual artery thrombosis was the key diagnostic feature of infective endocarditis.
