1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Tricuspid valve surgical procedures (TVS) concomitant with mitral valve (MV) surgical procedures for less than severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remains controversial. This study examined the long-term outcomes of patients with moderate or mild to moderate TR undergoing MV surgical procedures with or without TVS. Methods: Patients with moderate or mild to moderate TR undergoing MV replacement or repair between January 2002 and June 2021 were included. Primary outcomes of reoperation and long-term survival were compared for patients undergoing MV replacement or repair with or without TVS before and after stratifying by mitral disease cause. Results: The study included 505 patients. Mean age was 69 ± 12.7 years. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality for MV replacement (3.71 vs 4.39; Conclusions: Concomitant TVS for moderate or mild to moderate TR did not improve survival or decrease reoperation. Parameters beyond the degree of TR may aid in surgical decision-making.
