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

Isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis (PV-IE) is a rare condition. Its epidemiology, clinical profile, and management remain poorly characterized. A systematic review was conducted to provide a contemporary characterization (2020-2025) of adult cases with isolated PV-IE. Individuals with previous cardiac surgeries, cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), or long-term venous catheters were excluded. Of 1902 citations identified, 72 studies were selected with 79 eligible cases, mostly case reports. Patients were predominantly male (78.5%) with a median age of 43 years. Congenital heart disease (CHD) and injection drug use (IDU) were risk factors in 30.4% and 27.8% of cases, respectively, while 41.8% had neither (No-CHD/IDU group).
