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

Background: Left ventricular (LV) remodeling after anterior myocardial infarction (AMI) can cause a pathological increase in LV volume, reduction in LV ejection fraction (EF), and symptomatic heart failure (HF). This study evaluates the midterm results of a hybrid transcatheter and minimally invasive surgical technique to reconstruct the negatively remodeled LV by myocardial scar plication and exclusion with microanchoring technology. Methods: Retrospective single-center analysis of patients who underwent hybrid LV reconstruction (LVR) with the Revivent TransCatheter System. Patients were accepted for the procedure when they presented with symptomatic HF (New York Heart Association class ≥ II, EF < 40%) after AMI, in the presence of a dilated LV with either akinetic or dyskinetic scar in the anteroseptal wall and/or apex of ≥50% transmurality. Results: Between October 2016 and November 2021, 30 consecutive patients were operated. Procedural success was 100%. Comparing echocardiographic data preoperatively and directly postoperatively, LVEF increased from 33 ± 8% to 44 ± 10% ( Conclusions: Hybrid LVR for symptomatic HF after AMI is safe and results in significant improvement in EF, reduction in LV volumes, and sustained improvement in symptoms.
