Impact of Intraprocedural Pressure Changes on Hemodynamic Outcome During Self-Expanding TAVR.
Article in Cardiology and therapy, 2023. 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
introductionDuring the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure, hemodynamic measurements can be used to evaluate transcatheter heart valve (THV) performance. We hypothesized that the occurrence of a significant decrease in invasive aortic pressure immediately after annular contact by a self-expanding THV indicates effective annular sealing. This phenomenon could thus be used as a marker for the occurrence of paravalvular leak (PVL).
methodsThirty-eight patients undergoing TAVR procedure with a self-expandable Evolut R or Evolut Pro (Medtronic) valve prosthesis were included in the study. Drop in aortic pressure during valve expansion was defined as a decrease in systolic pressure of 30 mmHg immediately after annular contact. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of more than mild PVL immediately after valve implantation.
resultsA pressure drop was seen in 60.5% (23/38) of patients. More than mild PVL requiring balloon post-dilatation (BPD) was significantly more frequent in patients who did not have a systolic pressure decrease > 30 mmHg during valve implantation (46.7% [7/15] vs. 13.0% [3/23], respectively; p = 0.03). Patients without a systolic pressure decrease > 30 mmHg also had a lower mean cover index on computed tomography analysis (16.2% vs. 13.3%; p = 0.016). The 30-day outcomes were similar between the two groups, and echocardiography at 30 days demonstrated more than none/trace PVL in 21.1% (8/38) of patients, with no difference between the two groups.
conclusionA decrease in aortic pressure after annular contact is associated with an increased probability of good hemodynamic outcome after self-expanding TAVR implantation. In addition to other methods, this parameter could be used as an additional marker for optimal valve positioning and hemodynamic outcome during the implantation procedure.
