The burden of nonrheumatic valvular heart diseases in Iran between 1990 and 2017: Results from the global burden of disease study 2017.

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
Background: Nonrheumatic valvular heart diseases (NRVDs) are some of the common and treatable cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to describe the burden of NRVDs in Iran from 1990 to 2017 and to compare the findings with those from the world and in particular, the North Africa and Middle East (NAME) region. Methods: Using publicly available estimates from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 Study (the GBD 2017 Study) for Iran and the NAME region, we reported the years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and the prevalence for NRVDs by age group and sex between 1990 and 2017. Results: There were an estimated 174,071 cases and 957 deaths from NRVDs in Iran in 2017. In addition, 1844 YLDs, 21,661 YLLs, and 23,506 DALYs were caused by NRVDs in Iran in 2017. Between 1990 and 2017, the age-standardized prevalence rate increased in Ian by 15%, the death rate by 15.3%, and DALYs by 2%. Nevertheless, in the world and the NAME region, the age-standardized rates for DALYs and deaths decreased and the age-standardized prevalence rate increased till 2017. Conclusions: The burden of NRVDs is on the rise in Iran. A reduction in the burden of NRVDs in Iran requires the development of appropriate plans to meet the health needs of patients, the decrease of the modifiable risk factors, the allocation of adequate resources for the early diagnosis and management of the diseases, and an improvement in access to treatment technologies.
