Predictive performance of the TRI-SCORE in patients with severe aortic stenosis and concomitant tricuspid regurgitation undergoing TAVR.
Article in Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common comorbidity in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and represents a significant predictor of adverse outcomes. Precise risk stratification through clinical scoring systems is vital for tailoring treatment decisions in this patient population.
objectivesTo assess the applicability of the TRI-SCORE for predicting adverse outcomes in patients with AS and concomitant moderate-to-severe TR undergoing TAVR and to compare its performance with established surgical risk scores like the EuroSCORE II and Society of Thoracic Surgeons score (STS-Score).
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 301 patients with severe AS and concomitant TR who underwent TAVR between 2013 and 2022 at the Heart Center Bonn. According to the TRI-SCORE, patients were stratified into a low or intermediate-risk group (TRI-SCORE 0-5) and a high-risk group (TRI-SCORE 6-12). The primary endpoint was 2-year all-cause mortality. Predictive values of the TRI-SCORE were compared to the EuroSCORE II and the STS-Score for both 30-day and 2-year mortality outcomes.
resultsThe 2-year mortality rate was significantly higher in the high-risk group compared to the low or intermediate-risk group (TRI-SCORE 6-12: 40.0% vs. TRI-SCORE 0-5: 17.9%; p < 0.001). For predicting 30-day mortality, the EuroSCORE II and the STS-Score demonstrated superior predictive values, with AUCs of 78.4% and 83.0%, respectively, in comparison to the TRI-SCORE, which showed an AUC of 70.0%. Conversely, the TRI-SCORE allowed a better risk prediction with regard to 2-year all-cause mortality, achieving an AUC of 69.7%, superior to the EuroSCORE II (60.6%) and the STS-Score (62.1%).
conclusionThe TRI-SCORE is effective in predicting mid-term mortality in patients with AS and moderate-to-severe TR undergoing TAVR, demonstrating greater robustness than the EuroSCORE II and the STS-Score for this timeframe.
