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

This analysis of the data of the obligatory quality assurance programme AQUA shows the perioperative risk as well as the procedural outcome evaluated by the observed versus expected in-hospital mortality ratio (O/E ratio) of 62,872 patients undergoing isolated surgical (sAVR), transcatheter transvascular (TV-), or transapical (TA-) aortic valve replacement (TAVI) from 2012 to 2014 in Germany. The number of TAVI procedures increased from 9,352 in 2012 to 13,278 in 2014, whereas the number of sAVR remained constant (2012: 9,949; 2014: 9,953). Between 2012 and 2014, the number of TAVI implanted in patients with a logistic EuroScore I (logESI) of ≤10 % (2012: 21 %; 2014: 26 %) as well as with a logESI <20 % (2012: 57 %; 2014: 64 %) increased. In-hospital mortality in TAVI patients decreased from 5.2 % (TV: 5.0 %; TA: 7.4 %) in 2012 to 4.2 % (TV: 3.8 %; TA: 5.5 %) in 2014, whereas it was stable for sAVR patients (2012: 2.8 %; 2014: 2.6 %). The O/E ratio of TAVI patients decreased from 0.91 (TV: 0.79; TA: 1.2) to 0.73 (TV: 0.69; TA: 0.89), whereas this ratio remained constant for sAVR patients (2012: 0.92; 2014: 0.93). In summary, estimated surgical risk, in-hospital mortality, as well as the O/E ratio for patients undergoing TAVI declined constantly during the last 3 years.
