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

objectiveThe management of severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in patients with heart failure (HF) and low ejection fraction is controversial, but percutaneous transcatheter procedures are promising. In this retrospective analysis, we aimed to assess the efficacy of the Carillon Mitral Contour System in patients with "inoperable" severe FMR.

methodsSeventy three patients (mean age 66.89, range 31-90 years) with congestive heart failure (CHF), severe FMR, and reduced ejection fraction (<35%) who underwent Carillon device implantation were examined. The study group consisted of patients with successfully implanted devices whereas the control group comprised patients in whom the device could not be deployed. The primary endpoint was combined all-cause mortality and first hospitalization for HF (whichever came first).

resultsThe median (Q1, Q3) follow-up was 31 (11-49) months. The device was deployed successfully in 50 patients (implant group) and not in 23 patients (non-implant group). Both the primary endpoint and all-cause mortality were lower in the "implant" group, but the differences were not significant. The median to primary endpoint was 21 [95% confidence interval (CI) 8.8-33.2] and six (95% CI 0.1-11.9) months for the implant group and the non-implant group, respectively (p=0.078).

conclusionCarillon Mitral Contour System implantation is a safe procedure and results in the reduction of all-cause mortality and combined endpoint of mortality and hospitalizations for HF in inoperable patients with severe FMR and low ejection fraction, although the difference did not meet the significance level.
