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
backgroundVascular and bleeding complications remain a concern after transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The impact of the sheath type on these complications remains unclear.
methodsThe prospective MARVEL registry study analyzed enrolled 500 patients undergoing large-bore transfemoral procedures and arteriotomy closure with the MANTA vascular closure device from 10 hospitals in Europe and Canada. We stratified these patients according to type of sheath used (expandable or conventional). A propensity-matched analysis was performed using VARC-2 major or minor vascular and bleeding complications as the primary endpoint. The secondary endpoint was time to hemostasis.
resultsWe identified 196 propensity-matched pairs. Major vascular complications occurred in 3.6% in the expandable sheath group and 4.1% in the conventional sheath group (p = 1.0). Minor vascular complications occurred in 5.6% in the expandable sheath group and 4.6% in the conventional sheath group (p = 0.819). There were no significant differences in bleeding complications between groups. Time to hemostasis after MANTA closure was significantly shorter in the expandable sheath group (30 vs. 60 s, p < 0.001).
conclusionsA propensity-matched analysis demonstrated no significant differences in vascular complication rates with MANTA arteriotomy closure after removal of large bore expandable or conventional sheaths. Time to hemostasis was significantly shorter in the expandable sheath group.
