Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

backgroundRoutine exercise testing in asymptomatic patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) better classifies the hemodynamic severity of valve stenosis or regurgitation, and describes the symptomatic status and functional capacity of the patient. This is crucial for planned surveillance and optimal timing of surgery, particularly for aortic stenosis (AS), because once symptoms occur, there is a sharp increase in the risk of sudden death unless valve intervention is performed. PURPOSE: To conduct a focused clinical review on the benefits of exercise testing in patients with AS.

methodsThe electronic database PubMed was systematically searched for relevant retrospective and prospective cohort studies reporting on the safety, feasibility and tolerability of exercise testing in VHD, with a special focus on AS. RESULTS AND

conclusionsIn patients with significant AS, exercise testing is safe, feasible and reveals symptoms in a significant proportion of patients. In addition, serial testing has incremental prognostic value over a baseline test alone. Exercise testing in patients with AS is underused and should be performed routinely to refine the hemodynamic severity of AS.
