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

Mitral regurgitation is a common problem associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve surgery has been the treatment of choice for symptomatic patients with severe mitral regurgitation or asymptomatic patients with high-risk clinical features. However, a significant number of patients remain untreated related mainly due to a projected high surgical risk. Therefore, alternative percutaneous treatments including indirect annuloplasty, which takes advantage of the coronary sinus, and direct annuloplasty have recently been explored. Most recently, promising results of the first randomized trial comparing conventional mitral valve surgery to percutaneous therapy with a clip creating a double orifice much like the surgical Alfieri approach have been presented. Finally, percutaneous mitral valve replacement in an animal model has been pursued. This review serves to familiarize the reader with some anatomical concepts and devices for percutaneous mitral repair.
