Usefulness of skeletal muscle area detected by computed tomography to predict mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a meta-analysis study.

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
Measures of sarcopenia, such as low muscle mass measured from the readily available preoperative computed tomography (CT) images, have been recently suggested as a predictor of outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, results of these studies are variable and, therefore, we performed a systematic review of current literature to evaluate sarcopenia as a predictor of outcome post TAVR. The search was carried out in electronic databases between 2008 and 2018. We identified studies that reported CT-derived skeletal muscle area (SMA) and survival outcomes post TAVR. Studies were evaluated for the incidence of early (≤ 30 days) and late all-cause mortality (> 30 days) post TAVR. Eight studies with 1881 patients were included (mean age of 81.8 years ± 12, 55.9% men). Mean body mass index was (28.2 kg/m
