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

Background: Case presentation: An 83-year-old man developed intermittent fever about 6 weeks after coronary stent implantation. Multiple antibiotics were ineffective, and he was admitted for fever of unknown origin. Echocardiography showed newly developed pericardial adhesion with echocardiographic changes suggestive of possible early constrictive physiology. These were absent on the echocardiogram performed on the day of percutaneous coronary intervention. During admission, he underwent surgery for mechanical small-bowel obstruction, in which dense omental adhesions were found. With no prior abdominal surgery, the synchronous pericardial, pleural, and peritoneal abnormalities raised suspicion of a systemic inflammatory or infectious process. A single blood-culture draw at the outside hospital grew coagulase-negative staphylococcus, but blood cultures repeated after admission and a bone-marrow culture were negative. Blood metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) detected Conclusion: We report a rare presentation of suspected
