The impact of frailty on mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
10 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 17 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Frailty is a notably common problem in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) evaluation. Studies have demonstrated significant associations between frailty and worse outcomes in patients undergoing TAVR including higher risks of disability and mortality and admissions to long-term care facility. While there are multiple methods to identify and measure frailty, there is a critical need for a precise definition of frailty and its standardized assessment protocol based on well-established tests covering all aspects of the frailty, as a syndrome. Incorporation of the available frailty evaluation into pre-operative risk assessments chances of morbidity or mortality following surgery can help enhancing performance and improve shared decision-making between physicians and their patients. In this review, we present the perspectives of the impact of frailty on mortality in patients undergoing TAVR.
