Quadricuspid aortic valve with complete heart block: a double whammy.
Article in The Egyptian heart journal : (EHJ) : official bulletin of the Egyptian Society of Cardiology, 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
backgroundDevelopmental abnormalities of aortic valve cusps are relatively common with the bicuspid valve being the most frequently encountered congenital heart disease. However, the quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is an exceedingly rare abnormality. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case involving a young, otherwise healthy male who presented with non-exertional syncope and was subsequently diagnosed with complete heart block (CHB). Further evaluation revealed the coexistence of a rare quadricuspid aortic valve and CHB. This combination, in the absence of surgery or infective endocarditis, has only been reported once before in the literature.The patient underwent successful permanent pacemaker implantation and continues to be monitored for aortic regurgitation.
conclusionsThe coexistence of a QAV with CHB, in the absence of infective endocarditis or aortic valve surgery, is extremely rare and necessitates careful evaluation and follow-up.
