Surgical repair for primary tricuspid regurgitation related to trauma.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 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
We report a case of a 45-year-old man presenting with tachycardia and palpitation. Echocardiography indicated severe tricuspid regurgitation. We suspected traumatic tricuspid damage due to high energy trauma in a motor vehicle accident 17 years earlier. He underwent a sternotomy, and his tricuspid valve was repaired with chordal reconstruction, indentation closure, and ring annuloplasty. The postoperative period was uneventful, and he was discharged 10 days after the operation. This report highlights the value of echocardiography for diagnosis of primary tricuspid regurgitation related to trauma, and the importance of early diagnosis to allow surgical intervention before irreversible damage occurs. Learning objective: Traumatic tricuspid regurgitation is a rare cardiovascular complication of blunt chest trauma. The mechanism of the tricuspid valve injury is thought to be secondary to sudden impact causing an anteroposterior compression of the right ventricle by the sternum in end-diastole. This injury is often incidentally identified or can be missed until the patient experiences symptoms of right heart failure resulting from severe tricuspid regurgitation.
