Influence of Tricuspid Regurgitation After Heart Transplantation: A Single-center Experience.
Article in Transplantation direct, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Tricuspid valve regurgitation (TVR) is often observed after orthotopic heart transplantation. However, there is a scarcity of data regarding long-term outcomes of patients with TVR. Methods: Between January 2008 and December 2015, 169 patients underwent orthotopic heart transplantation at our center and were included in this study. TVR trends and associated clinical parameters were retrospectively analyzed. TVR was assessed after 30 d, 1 y, 3 y, and 5 y, and groups were defined according to changes in TVR grade: constant (group 1; n = 100), improvement (group 2; n = 26), and deterioration (group 3; n = 43). Survival, outcome with regard to operative technique, and long-term kidney and liver function during follow-up were assessed. Results: Mean follow-up time was 7.67 ± 4.17 y (median 8.62, Q1 5.06, Q3 11.16). Overall mortality was 42.0%, with differences between the groups ( Conclusions: Deterioration of TVR is associated with higher mortality and renal dysfunction. Improvement of TVR may function as a positive predictor for long-term survival after heart transplantation. Improvement of TVR should be a therapeutic goal offering a prognostic value for long-term survival.
