Readmission Trends and Outcomes of Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair of Mitral Regurgitation With and Without Anemia.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAnemia is associated with worse clinical outcomes in cardiac patients. We aim to investigate the clinical outcomes and readmission rates in anemic patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) for severe mitral valve regurgitation (MR).
methodsThe National Readmissions Database (NRD) from 2015 to 2018 was queried using the ICD-10 codes to identify patients admitted for TEER. Patients were divided into anemic and non-anemic sub-groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Cardiovascular outcomes were assessed between cohorts at index admission and readmissions at 30, 90, and 180 days. STATA v.17 was used for analysis (StataCorp LLC, Texas, USA).
resultsOur final cohort included 28,995 patients who had undergone TEER in the United States between 2016 and 2019. About 1,434 (4.9%) had a diagnosis of anemia. The mean age of patients who had TEER with anemia and TEER without anemia was 76.9 ± 10.8 vs. 77.7 ± 10.2, respectively. In the adjusted model, anemic patients had higher odds of acute kidney injury (AKI) (aOR 2.21; 95% [CI 1.81-2.6; p<0.001]), HF (aOR 1.75; 95% [CI 1.28-2.3; p<0.001]), myocardial infarction (MI) (aOR 1.54; 95% [CI 1.01-2.33; p<0.041]), major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (aOR 1.72; 95% [CI 1.2-9-2.3; p<0.001]), and net adverse event (aOR 1.85; 95% [CI 1.32-2.59; p<0.001]). The anemic group's readmission rate was overall higher at 30, 90, and 180 days from 2016 to 2019.
conclusionAnemia was associated with increased adverse clinical outcomes and more extended hospital stays in patients with anemia who had undergone TEER procedures compared to the non-anemic group.
