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

opinion statementTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an effective treatment alternative in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) who are deemed surgically high-risk or ineligible for surgery. Pre-procedural imaging, in particular computed tomography (CT), plays an integral part in the planning and performance of TAVR and is crucial for a successful treatment. Novel technological advances in CT include high-pitch, low kV acquisitions, and iterative reconstruction resulting in high image quality at substantially reduced scan duration, contrast volume, and radiation exposure. Given the high spatial and temporal resolution of the acquisitions, CT angiography provides critical information on the eligibility for the peripheral vascular access, aortic root assessment, as well as the aortic annulus measurements, including the coronary ostia and concomitant cardiac pathology. Pre-procedural CT imaging is key for appropriate device size selection to minimize peri-procedural complications and optimize procedural success. In this article, we review the current state of imaging in the pre-interventional setting of TAVR with a special emphasis on CT.
