Infectious Endocarditis Caused by Multidrug-resistant Corynebacterium striatum in an Immunocompetent Host without a History of Cardiac Disease.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. 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
Corynebacterium striatum, which inhabits the human skin and mucous membranes, is generally considered to have low pathogenic potential. It rarely causes infectious endocarditis in immunocompetent hosts without underlying cardiac disease. We report a case of infectious endocarditis caused by multidrug-resistant Corynebacterium striatum in a 75-year-old man with no history of cardiac disease or other predisposing conditions following endoscopic mucosal resection of the rectum. When C. striatum is isolated from blood cultures, careful evaluation of potential underlying risk factors is essential to distinguish true infection from contamination.
