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

The first valve sparing root replacement (VSRR) was first described over thirty years ago. Reimplantation is favored at our institution to provide maximum annular support in the setting of annuloaortic ectasia. Multiple iterations for this operation have been reported. Surgical intervention varies in terms of graft sizing, the number and method of inflow suture placement, strategy for annular plication and stabilization, and finally choice of graft type. Our specific technique has evolved over the last eighteen years and the current approach is to use a larger straight graft loosely based on the original Feindel-David formula, six inflow sutures to anchor the graft, and some degree of annular plication with annular stabilization. The long-term results for both trileaflet and bicuspid valves are associated with a low reintervention rate. Herein we provide a clear outline for our specific approach to the reimplantation technique.
