Transcatheter Interventions for Atrioventricular Dysfunction in Patients with Adult Congenital Heart Disease: An International Case Series.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionA substantial proportion of patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) suffer from worsening valvular dysfunction in adulthood. Transcatheter valve interventions can offer a therapeutic alternative to surgery for those at high surgical risk. There is emerging but limited data on transcatheter interventions for atrioventricular (AV) valve dysfunction in patients with ACHD.
methodsWe compiled an international collaborative multi-center registry focusing on adult patients with congenital heart disease undergoing transcatheter AV valve interventions (repair or replacement). Included were patients from three international centers who underwent procedures between 2016 and 2022. Demographic, clinical, and procedural data were compiled.
resultsNine patients with ACHD underwent AV valve interventions. The median age was 48 years (IQR (37; 56), 55% women). At baseline, seven patients (78%) were in NYHA functional class III and two (22%) were in NYHA functional class II. The diagnosis of ACHD varied. Three valve interventions were performed on the subpulmonary AV valve and six on the systemic AV valve. The primary valvular pathology was regurgitation (six patients, 78%). Five procedures were valve-in-valve interventions, and four procedures were transcatheter edge-to-edge repair procedures. There were no major complications or peri-procedural complications or peri-procedural mortality. One patient developed a suspected non-obstructive thrombus on the valve that was medically treated. One patient did not improve clinically following the procedure and underwent a heart transplant, one patient died 6 months following the procedure due to a cardiovascular implantable electronic device infection. At one year, six patients were in NYHA functional class I, and one patient was in NYHA functional class III. In conclusion, transcatheter AV heart valve interventions are feasible and safe procedures in carefully selected ACHD patients. These procedures can offer an effective treatment option in these younger patients with high surgical risk.
