Infective Endocarditis With a Giant Vegetation on the Tricuspid Valve With a Congenital Ventricular Septal Defect in a 63-Year-Old Patient.

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
Infective endocarditis is an infection of the endocardial tissue of the heart, primarily affecting the cardiac valves. Of various causes, untreated or undiagnosed congenital heart defects are known contributors. This report presents the case of a 63-year-old man with infective endocarditis of the tricuspid valve associated with an uncorrected ventricular septal defect. We describe our elderly patient who underwent successful surgical repair, including tricuspid valve reconstruction and closure of the ventricular septal defect, after a long life uncomplicated by severe pulmonary hypertension.
