A Case of Silent Mycobacterial Endocarditis Masked as Refractory Hyperparathyroidism.
Article in Cureus, 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
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria are a rare cause of infectious endocarditis and are associated with a high mortality rate. Formal recommendations guiding treatment are lacking, non-standardized, and generally rely on prior case reports. This report adds to the current literature with the intent to help guide management in similar patients. A 70-year-old female with a history of chronic, primary hyperparathyroidism and recent mitral valve replacement with an ultra-porcine bioprosthesis nine months prior presented for altered mental status secondary to hypercalcemia (total calcium: 12.5 mg/dL, free calcium: 1.84 mg/dL). Through her hospital course, it was determined she had
