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

Acute myocardial infarction from a vegetation is a rare complication of infective endocarditis. Thrombolysis, percutaneous coronary intervention with balloon angioplasty, stenting, and thromboaspiration, and surgery have all been described in this challenging clinical scenario. A woman with staphylococcal bioprosthetic aortic valve infective endocarditis developed acute myocardial infarction due to a vegetation invading the left main coronary artery, which was successfully managed with percutaneous thromboaspiration.
