Applications of multi-modality imaging in the diagnosis of infective endocarditis: a real-life case based contemporary narrative review.
Review in Cardiovascular diagnosis and therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 and Objective: Recent major international society guidelines have highlighted the utility of multi-modality imaging in the evaluation of infective endocarditis (IE). This article aims to discuss the contemporary applications of multimodality imaging in IE through real-life cases, demonstrating how emerging imaging modalities, including cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and nuclear imaging techniques can be used. Methods: A literature search of the PubMed database was performed between Jan 01, 2024 and Oct 01, 2024. Relevant articles on the subjects of "infective endocarditis" and "multi-modality imaging" were used in our review. Four clinical cases from the Cleveland Clinic Foundation were incorporated to supplement this literature review with real-world examples. Key Content and Findings: This literature review encompasses international cardiology guidelines, as well as investigational studies, meta-analyses, and dedicated reviews highlighting the specific roles, strengths, and weaknesses of different imaging modalities in the evaluation of IE, including transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), CCT, Conclusions: The current literature and guidelines are discussed with reference to complex clinical cases, with the aim of illustrating the relative advantages and disadvantages, and appropriate utility of multimodality cardiac imaging in IE.
