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

Infective endocarditis (IE) of the tricuspid and pulmonary valve accounts for 5 to 10% of all IE cases and, compared with left-sided IE, is often associated with intravenous (i.v.) drug use, presence of intracardiac devices, and central venous catheters (CVCs), including permanent-Hickman catheter (HC). We report a case of a 71-year-old female patient on a chronic hemodialysis (HD) program who had developed IE. Her first symptoms were fever and malaise. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) examinations were performed, revealing vegetations on the tip of HC and the anterior and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve (TV). Three blood culture bottles were positive for
