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

Data on non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients are controversial. In patients without atrial fibrillation (AF), rivaroxaban showed enhanced ischemia and bleeding as compared to standard of care. ENVISAGE showed enhanced bleeding in AF patients as compared to vitamin K antagonist (VKA). Only apixaban was non-inferior but failed superiority regarding bleeding in AF patients after TAVR. One could hypothesize that this might be due to pharmacokinetics of NOACs. Therefore, we compared outcome in rivaroxaban/edoxaban (once-daily) and apixaban (twice-daily) treated patients. 568 patients with indication for permanent oral anticoagulation due to AF undergoing TAVR were analyzed via inverse probability of treatment weighting. Valve academic research consortium complications during 30-day follow-up were assessed. Bleeding complications were similar in once-daily and twice-daily NOACs (major: 22 (7.5%) vs. 14 (5.3%), p = 0.285; minor: 66 (22.4%) vs. 46 (17.4%), p = 0.133). Complications did not change when splitting the cohort in the different agents apixaban, rivaroxaban and edoxaban. These findings remained robust after multivariate analysis. In summary, twice-daily and once-daily NOACs did not differ regarding bleeding complications in a hypothesis generating real-world cohort of TAVR patients with AF.
