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: Limited studies have focused on the performance of self-expandable valves (SEVs) and balloon-expandable valves (BEVs) in patients with dilatated ascending aorta (AA) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The present study compared the performance of widely used Edwards BEVs and domestic SEVs in patients with dilatated AA among Chinese population. Methods: We identified and reviewed 207 patients who had baseline AA diameter ≥40 mm and underwent transfemoral TAVR. Patients were divided into two groups: SEV and BEV. The SEVs were locally manufactured valves that have received Chinese regulatory approval (Venus-A, Taurus One, and VitaFlow), while the BEVs were Edwards Sapien XT and Sapien3. Procedural device success and post-procedural changes of AA diameters were compared. Results: The sample size of SEV group was larger than that of BEV group because BEVs were not available in China in the early clinical practice. The overall device success was slightly lower in SEV group compared with BEV group (84.2% Conclusions: In patients with dilatated AA who underwent TAVR, the type of THVs did not affect the procedural device success. BAV appeared to be a risk factor for both device failure and higher aortic expansion rate in these patients.
