Isolated tricuspid valve surgery after congenital versus left heart-disease surgery: mid-term outcomes.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 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
backgroundLeft heart involvement might be a differential factor in the physiopathology and prognosis of severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) following cardiac surgery. We aimed to compare the outcomes of isolated tricuspid valve surgery (ITVS) after congenital versus left heart-disease surgery.
methodsWe retrospectively studied and followed up 58 patients who underwent ITVS for TR following cardiac surgery in our center from January 2012 to December 2017. According to the different etiologies of TR, the participants were divided into one group of TR following surgery for congenital heart diseases (CHD) (pCHD group, n=24), and another group of TR following surgery for left heart disease (pVHD group, n=34).
resultsCompared to the pCHD group, the pVHD group presented with a more advanced age (P<0.001), higher model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score calculation (P=0.04), and higher EuroSCORE II calculation (P=0.01). In the post-operative course, the pVHD group showed a longer mechanical ventilation time (P<0.001) and longer intensive care unit stay (P=0.001). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in in-hospital mortality (8.8%
conclusionsSevere TR following surgery for left heart disease is associated with higher surgical risks and a remarkable frailty as compared to that following surgery for CHDs; however, with the development of surgical techniques and peri-operative management, ITVS can be safely performed in both conditions with promising contemporary mid-term outcomes.
