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

purpose of reviewMitral regurgitation (MR) is one of the most frequent valvular heart diseases encountered in clinical practice. In contrast to primary MR, less is still known about the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and prognosis of secondary MR. The purpose of this report is to provide a review, upon the last knowledge reported in the literature, on the role and management of secondary MR in clinical practice. RECENT

findingsRecent data highlight secondary MR not as a single pathological entity but as a wide spectrum of interconnected conditions which portend poor outcome. Although the role of secondary MR on clinical outcome is debated, recent available data suggest an independent association of MR with prognosis. Nevertheless, available treatment did not show a clear benefit after MR correction. Further studies are needed to better categorize and assess secondary MR beyond schematic classification. A management approach should be tailored upon each clinical context of presentation.
