Transcatheter Advances in the Treatment of Adult and Congenital Valvular Heart Disease.
Article in Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
opinion statementTranscatheter valve therapies represent the newest frontier in interventional cardiology. At present, transcatheter aortic valve replacement and mitral valve edge-to-edge repair are currently approved by the US FDA in appropriately selected patients. These transcatheter therapies are typically employed in patients of advanced age with comorbid conditions. However, many younger adults with congenital heart disease are of comparable surgical risk due to multiple previous open heart surgeries. An array of percutaneous options currently exists for either temporizing or treating such patients (e.g., balloon septostomy, valvuloplasty, coiling of patent ductus arteriosus), but evidence-based treatment options for degenerative valve disease in this population are currently lacking. The most significant advance in this area to date has been the development and validation of transcatheter pulmonic valve implantation. Similarly, catheter-based approaches for the treatment of other valve lesions in patients with congenital valve disease are gaining interest, based in large part on promising evidence from studies of patients with acquired adult valvular heart disease.
