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: The treatment of choice for patients with severe symptomatic pure native aortic valve regurgitation (PNAVR) is surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). However, not all patients are candidates for surgery because of comorbidities or are deemed high risk for surgery. In such cases, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has proved to be better than medical treatment. Case summary: A 78-year-old male with a history of ankylosing spondylitis was admitted with New York Heart Association III heart failure. The echocardiogram showed severe aortic regurgitation and a left ventricular ejection fraction of 52%. Because of high surgical risk and being refractory to medical RX, he was accepted for TAVR. The tomography of anatomical characteristics reported the absence of calcium and dilation of the aortic ring and aortic root. During the TAVR procedure, the patient experienced valve migration, but it was autonomously repositioned in the aortic annulus. As a rescue measure, a second valve was placed. Here, we present a case of valve migration to the left ventricle treated with a valve-in-valve procedure without the need for surgical treatment. Discussion: The absence of annulus calcification in PNAVR increases the risk of post-TAVR paravalvular leak and device embolization. Valve migration generally requires valve recovery and conversion to SAVR.
