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

objectiveThis study aimed to confirm the safety and feasibility of totally endoscopic repair for mitral regurgitation (MR) in Barlow's disease.

methodsFrom June 2018 to December 2022, 21 consecutive Barlow's disease patients (aged 33 ± 12 years; 57.1% male) underwent totally endoscopic mitral valve (MV) repair with leaflets folding, multiple artificial chordae implantation and ring annuloplasty. The safety and feasibility of this technique was evaluated by its mid-term clinical outcomes.

resultsThere was no operative death or complications. The mean cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time was 190 ± 41 (128-267) min, and the aortic cross-clamp time was 145 ± 32 (66-200) min. The average number of artificial chordae implantation was 2.9 ± 0.7 (1-4) pairs. The mean MV coaptation length was 1.4 ± 0.3 (0.8-1.8) cm, and the median transvalvular gradient was 1 [interquartile range (IQR), 1-2] mmHg. During a median follow-up time of 24 (IQR, 10-38) months, all patients showed persistent effective valve function with no significant MR or systolic anterior motion.

conclusionsTotally endoscopic repair was a safe, effective, and reproducible procedure with satisfied mid-term clinical outcomes for MR in Barlow's disease. However, further randomized and long-term follow-up studies were warranted to determine its clinical effects.
