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

purpose of reviewThe evaluation of aortic regurgitation (AR) has advanced from physical examination and angiography towards evidence based non-invasive quantitative methods, primarily with echocardiography and more recently with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). This review highlights the guidelines and recent evidence in the diagnosis and management of AR; and outlines future areas of research. RECENT

findingsContemporary large cohorts of AR patients studied with echocardiography and CMR suggest that the left ventricular remodeling and systolic function triggers for intervention may be lower than previously recommended in the guidelines and emphasize the importance of LV volumes in risk stratification. Important gaps of knowledge in the quantitation of AR severity and patient risk stratification were fulfilled recently. Potential thresholds for intervention using ventricular volumes and CMR quantitative findings were recently described. The criteria for what constitutes hemodynamically significant AR and the optimal timing of intervention AR deserve further study.
