Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Complicating Infective Endocarditis: A Case Report and Review of Reported Outcomes After Revascularization.
Article in Cureus, 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
Acute myocardial infarction in the context of infective endocarditis is a dreadful complication. Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain this complication; embolization of fragments of valvular vegetations into the coronary tree is one possible mechanism. Early mortality with this complication is reportedly high. Moreover, outcomes after treatment, either with percutaneous or surgical intervention, are not well-described in the literature. We report a case of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction complicating bacterial native aortic valve endocarditis. Despite aspiration of infective debris and stent implantation in the left anterior descending coronary artery, the patient died from cardiogenic and septic shock. We also summarize the literature reporting outcomes of such patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and comparing them to the outcomes of patients undergoing surgical revascularization.
