Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) has a profound negative effect on survival of patients following myocardial infarction. It occurs when the closing forces are overpowered by the tethering forces as a consequence of ventricular remodeling. Surgeons sought to correct moderate and severe IMR by mitral annuloplasty. Though short-term results were encouraging, survival after 2 years were not so. Higher recurrence rates were also noted with severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Parameters defining severity of IMR were initially formulated in 2003. These were revised enabling intervention in moderate MR in 2014. With the lack of positive medium and long-term evidence, 2017 guidelines have raised the bar, discouraging intervention in moderate IMR. Current guidelines have taken a conservative stance in advocating repair only for severe MR and very symptomatic patients. Till emergence of fresh evidence surgical enthusiasm for repair of IMR has to be restrained.
