Infective Endocarditis-Impact of Preoperative Neurological Complications on Postoperative Outcome.
Article in European journal of neurology, 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
aimTreating infective endocarditis (IE) complicated by neurological events remains challenging and often requires case-by-case decisions. Identifying predictors of postoperative complications is key to effective risk assessment and management.
methodsData from 191 patients who underwent cardiac surgery for IE were analyzed. Patients were grouped based on the presence or absence of preoperative neurological events (ischemic stroke, TIA, or intracerebral hemorrhage). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify predictors of postoperative neurological complications.
resultsPatients with preoperative neurological events underwent surgery later (33 ± 25 vs. 23 ± 23 days, p = 0.022), had larger vegetations (1.27 ± 1.88 vs. 0.68 ± 1.08 cm
conclusionPatients with preoperative neurological complications remain at high risk for neurological deterioration in the postoperative course.
