Epidemiological Insights into HACEK Bacteria: A Seven-year Retrospective Analysis at a Tertiary Care Center in Istanbul.
Article in Medeniyet medical journal, 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
Objective: HACEK bacteria ( Methods: This retrospective analysis investigated 30 cases of HACEK infections diagnosed at a tertiary care hospital in Istanbul over a seven-year period (2017-2023). Data were collected from electronic medical records and laboratory databases. Results: Patients ranged in age from 0 to 76 years, with isolates derived from a variety of clinical specimens. Conclusions: These findings underscore the diagnostic challenges associated with HACEK infections and the potential underestimation of their prevalence. Prospective, multicenter studies are needed to clarify the epidemiological and clinical significance of these organisms. Moreover, the development of standardized antimicrobial susceptibility testing protocols and evidence-based therapeutic strategies is essential to optimize patient management and improve clinical outcomes.
