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

Degenerative mitral regurgitation is a major threat to public health and affects at least 24 million people worldwide, with an estimated 0.88 million disability-adjusted life years and 34,000 deaths in 2019. Improving access to diagnostic testing and to timely curative therapies such as surgical mitral valve repair will improve the outcomes of many individuals. Imaging such as echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance allow accurate diagnosis and have provided new insights for a better definition of the most appropriate timing for intervention. Advances in surgical techniques allow minimally invasive treatment with durable results that last for ≥20 years. Transcatheter therapies can provide good results in select patients who are considered high risk for surgery and have a suitable anatomy; the durability of such repairs is up to 5 years. Translational science has provided new knowledge on the pathophysiology of degenerative mitral regurgitation and may pave the road to the development of medical therapies that could be used to halt the progression of the disease.
