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

The advent and success of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for the treatment of severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) has sparked a renewed interest in the disease process associated with the valve disorder. While it is evident that untreated AS is fatal, the progressive and cumulative effects of AS on the heart have only recently been studied in a widespread fashion, after the initial pivotal TAVR trials in the United States. From these data, a novel staging system has been developed to characterize the extent of cardiac damage caused by AS. This staging system facilitates risk stratification of patients with AS using echocardiographic data and measurements to derive an assessment of morbidity and mortality. After being successfully validated using outcomes from several TAVR trials, the model has now been extrapolated to patients with moderate AS and other cardiac valve disorders as well. In this review, we explore the origins of the cardiac damage staging system, its validation, and uses in various cardiac conditions.
