Impact of hypotonic hyponatremia on outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a national inpatient sample.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2025. 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
backgroundTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a major therapeutic option for treating aortic stenosis. Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte disorder closely associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, large-scale studies investigating the impact of hypotonic hyponatremia on outcomes among TAVR patients are lacking.
methodsWe queried patients who underwent TAVR with concomitant hypo-osmolar hyponatremia (defined as a serum sodium concentration < 135 mEq/L with a serum osmolality < 280 mOsm/kg) using the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2021). Multivariate regression analysis and 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to assess the associations between hypo-osmolar hyponatremia and in-hospital mortality and major adverse events (including acute kidney injury [AKI], acute myocardial infarction [AMI], and cardiogenic shock [CS]). Furthermore, sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the robustness of the findings.
resultsAmong the total weighted national estimate of 370,680 patients who underwent TAVR, 13,865 (3.7%) had concomitant hypo-osmolar hyponatremia. These patients had a significantly increased risk of in-hospital mortality (aOR: 1.37; 95% CI: 1.08-1.74) and a greater likelihood of developing AKI (aOR: 3.39; 95% CI: 3.07-3.74), AMI (aOR: 3.20; 95% CI: 2.77-3.70), and CS (aOR: 2.96; 95% CI: 2.52-3.47). After PSM and sensitivity analysis, these associations remained significant.
conclusionIn TAVR patients, hypo-osmolar hyponatremia is associated with increased in-hospital mortality and adverse events, including AKI, AMI, and CS.
