Complications of transcatheter paravalvular leak device closure of mitral valve: An updated review of the literature and a rare case presentation.
Review in Clinical cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Paravalvular leak (PVL) is an uncommon complication of prosthetic valve implantation, which can lead to infective endocarditis, heart failure, and hemolytic anemia. Surgical reintervention of PVLs is associated with high mortality rates. Transcatheter PVL closure (TPVLc) has emerged as an alternative to surgical reoperation. This method provides a high success rate with a low rate of complications. This article reviews the pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, and management of PVL and complications following TPVLc. Besides, we presented a case of a patient with severe PVL following mitral valve replacement, who experienced complete heart block (CHB) during TPVLc. The first TPVLc procedure failed in our patient due to possible AV-node insult during catheterization. After 1 week of persistent CHB, a permanent pacemaker was implanted. The defect was successfully passed using the previous attempt. Considering the advantages of TPVLc, procedure failure should be regarded as a concern. TPVLc should be performed by experienced medical teams in carefully selected patients.
