The Usefulness of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing to Detect Functional Improvement after Transcatheter Valve Procedures: What Do We Know So Far?
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 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
Transcatheter valve procedures have become a cornerstone in the management of patients with valvular heart disease and high surgical risk, especially for aortic stenosis and mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is generally considered the gold standard for objectively quantifying functional capacity, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the human body's performance, particularly in patients with heart failure (HF). Its accurate assessment is valuable for exploring the pathogenetic mechanisms implicated in HF-related functional impairment. It is also useful for objectively staging the clinical severity and the prognosis of the disease. The improvement in functional capacity after transcatheter valve procedures may be clinically relevant and may provide prognostic information, even in this setting. However, it remains to be fully determined as data on the topic are limited. This review aims to summarize the available evidence on the usefulness of CPET to assess functional improvement in patients undergoing transcatheter valve procedures.
