Managing tricuspid valve pathology in multiple valvular heart disease.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. 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
Introduction: Multiple valvular heart disease (MVD) is a general term to describe regurgitant and stenotic combination involving the same valve and/or occurring in ≥2 cardiac valves. Limited data and paucity in guidelines render the diagnosis and management. This article aims to provide a state-of-the-art review concerning the diagnosis and management strategies of MVD. Case presentation: We report a 46-year-old female with worsening dyspnea and fatigue. We perform multiple echocardiography parameters. We diagnose patients with the stenotic mitral valve, stenotic-regurgitant aortic valve, and stenotic-regurgitant tricuspid valve (TV). Double mechanical valve replacement and TV commissurotomy with Kay procedure were done with excellent results. Clinical discussion: The prevalence of MVD is 15% in those undergoing cardiac surgery; however only 1% of those who underwent triple valve surgery involve TV. The presence of TV lesion may complicate the natural history, clinical presentation, management, and outcomes. Echocardiography with valid method remains an important tool in assessment of patients with MVD. Multidiscipline heart team discussion is essential in determining individual risk, appropriate management methods, and long-term survival. Conclusion: The expertise of multidisciplinary heart valve team is of utmost importance in determining diagnosis and optimal management strategy.
