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

backgroundThe aim of the study was to assess the predictive ability of risk calculators of the EuroSCORE II and the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) score in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) due to severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) during a 30-day and 1-year follow-up.

methodsA prospective study was conducted on a group of consecutive patients with hemodynamically significant aortic valve stenosis that underwent elective valve replacement surgery. The risk of surgery using EuroSCORE II and STS was calculated for each patient. The primary and secondary endpoints were 30-day and 1-year mortality.

resultsThe study group included 428 consecutive patients who underwent replacement of the aortic valve. Thirteen patients died during the 30-day follow-up and 25 patients died during 1-year follow-up. Actual mortality in 30-day observation was 3.0% compared to the predicted 2.9% using EuroSCORE II and 2.1% for STS. The discriminations of ES II and STS score were above 0.8 for mortality prediction during the 30-day and 1-year observation period.

conclusionsThe EuroSCORE II and STS score showed satisfactory discrimination and calibration for predicting 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients undergoing AVR.
