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

Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is the most frequent valvular heart disorder, and the one with the highest impact and burden in the elderly population. While the quality and standardization of the current aortic valve replacements has reached unprecedented levels with the commercialization of minimally-invasive implants and the design of procedures for valve repair, the need of supplementary therapies able to block or retard the course of the pathology before patients need the intervention is still awaited. In this contribution, we will discuss the emerging opportunity to set up devices to mechanically rupture the calcium deposits accumulating in the aortic valve and restore, at least in part, the pliability and the mechanical function of the calcified leaflets. Starting from the evidences gained by mechanical decalcification of coronary arteries in interventional cardiology procedures, a practice already in the clinical setting, we will discuss the advantages and the potential drawbacks of valve lithotripsy devices and their potential applicability in the clinical scenario.
