Successful Reversal of Late, Severe Thrombotic Bioprosthetic Mitral Valve Stenosis With Anticoagulation Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Late bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (bPVT) is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication following valve replacement with thrombus formation leading mostly to valvular stenosis or embolic phenomena. Clinically, it manifests as symptoms of fatigue, dyspnea, or reduced exercise capacity. The existing treatment guidelines lack clear recommendations for managing this specific presentation. In this case study, we present a distinct clinical scenario wherein the use of anticoagulation, specifically apixaban, successfully reversed very late, severe thrombotic stenosis in a 78-year-old woman with a Medtronic Hancock II porcine mitral valve (Dublin, Ireland). This case highlights the need to consider bPVT as an alternative etiology to valve degeneration in the setting of late bioprosthetic valve stenosis. Additionally, it demonstrates how apixaban therapy may serve as a viable treatment modality in these scenarios.
