Effect of Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair on Left Ventricular Flow Features.
Article in Cardiovascular engineering and technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeThis study aims to investigate the effects of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) on left ventricular hemodynamics and its potential implications for patient health.
methodsAn in vitro experimental platform was designed to replicate the anatomical and functional characteristics of the left ventricle (LV). This platform integrates native porcine mitral and aortic valves with a patient-specific 3D-printed silicone LV. The LV hemodynamics after TEER is assessed using echocardiography and particle image velocimetry, focusing on critical indices such as vorticity, Reynolds shear stress (RSS), viscous shear stress (VSS), and energy dissipation rate (ε).
resultsTEER effectively reduces the degree of mitral regurgitation (MR); however, it significantly increases RSS, VSS, and ε due to the formation of numerous small-scale vortices in the LV.
conclusionThese hemodynamic changes may lead to adverse left ventricular remodeling, red blood cell damage, and reduced cardiac pumping efficiency, which have to be taken into consideration to optimize the TEER procedure and improve patient outcomes.
