Racial Disparities in Access to High-Volume Mitral Valve Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair Centers.
Article in Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Background: Severe mitral regurgitation is a progressive disease associated with high morbidity and mortality, and frequent readmissions for heart failure. Surgical mitral valve repair or replacement has been the gold-standard treatment; however, advances in transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) have provided alternatives for high-risk surgical patients. There are no data on racial disparities in access to high-volume TEER centers. Methods: Data on TEER hospitalizations from New York, New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, Washington, Colorado, Arizona, and Florida were analyzed using the State Inpatient Databases for 2016. The baseline characteristics of patients who underwent TEER at high- (≥25 procedures per year) and low-volume centers were identified. The association between race and the likelihood of undergoing TEER at high-volume centers was assessed. The secondary outcomes were mortality and the frequency of home discharges. Results: Of 1567 patients included in the analysis, 1129 underwent TEER at high-volume centers. Patients treated at high-volume centers had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure. Black and Hispanic patients were 59% (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.41; Conclusions: Racial minorities patients, particularly Black and Hispanic patients, are less likely to undergo TEER at high-volume centers. Hispanic patients experience higher rates of in-hospital mortality after TEER than White patients.
