Comparison of four aortic bioprostheses: Hancock II

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: In the era of percutaneous aortic valve implantation, biological valves are the preferred prostheses implanted in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR). The aim was to present a real-life analysis of mid-term sAVR outcomes for the four aortic bioprostheses: the Hancock II, the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna, the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna Ease and the Trifecta valve. Methods: This is a retrospective study based on data from the Polish National Cardiac Surgery Database. The study population comprised of 1,589 consecutive patients, of whom 432 were in the Hancock II group, 356 in the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna group, 427 in the Carpentier-Edwards Magna Ease group, and 374 in the Trifecta group. A comparison of the four groups was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Kruskal-Wallis test with appropriate post hoc tests (Tukey HSD or Steel-Dwass, respectively). Results: Patients in the Hancock II group were older, had higher New York Heart Association (NYHA) and Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) classes, had lower prevalence of hypertension and hyperlipidemia but higher prevalence of diabetes. The lowest mean valve size was observed in Trifecta group and the highest was in the Magna group (P<0.001). Survival analysis showed no significant differences in in-hospital mortality: 3.9% in Hancock II, 3.1% in Perimount, 3.3% in Magna and 2.1% in Trifecta group. Five-year mortality was significantly higher in Hancock II group (25.7%) compared to the other bioprostheses: 12.1% in Perimount, 9.1% in Magna and 10.70% in Trifecta group respectively. Conclusions: The 5-year mortality rate was significantly higher in the Hancock II group compared to the other bioprostheses. In contrast, Trifecta, Perimount Magna, and Magna Ease had similar 5-year mortality rates.
