Flow dynamics of surgical and transcatheter aortic valves: Past to present.
Article in JTCVS open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Objective: To perform an in vitro characterization of surgical aortic valves (SAVs) and transcatheter aortic valves (TAVs) to highlight the development of the flow dynamics depending on the type of valve implanted and assess the basic differences in the light of flow turbulence and its effect on blood damage likelihood and hemodynamic parameters that shed light on valve performance. Methods: A Starr-Edwards ball and cage valve of internal diameter 22 mm, a 23-mm Medtronic Hancock II SAV, a 23-mm St Jude Trifecta SAV, a 23-mm St Jude SJM (mechanical valve) SAV, a 26-mm Medtronic Evolut TAV, and a 26-mm Edwards SAPIEN 3 TAV were assessed in a pulse duplicator under physiological conditions. Particle image velocimetry was performed for each valve. Pressure gradient and effective orifice area (EOA) along with velocity flow field, Reynolds shear stress (RSS), and viscous shear stress (VSS) were calculated. Results: The SJM mechanical valve exhibited the greatest EOA (1.96 ± 0.02 cm Conclusions: The results of this study shed light on numerous advancements in the design of aortic valve replacement prosthesis and the subsequent hemodynamic variations. Future surgical and transcatheter valve designs should aim at not only concentrating on hemodynamic parameters but also at optimizing downstream flow properties.
