Aortic Valve Calcium: A Narrative Review of its Role in the Assessment of Aortic Stenosis and as a Predictor of Post-transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Outcomes.
Review in Interventional cardiology (London, England), 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
Degenerative aortic valve disease is the third most common cause of heart disease in the developed world. Calcific deposits accrue in the valve endothelium causing progressive stenosis of the orifice. Increasingly, transcatheter aortic valve implantation is being used in place of surgery as treatment for aortic stenosis, particularly for patients who are considered high surgical risk. Although echocardiography remains the gold standard for the diagnosis and grading of aortic valve stenosis, there is an increasing interest in the role that aortic valve calcification scoring may play in these areas. In this review, the authors evaluate the current evidence for aortic valve calcium scoring as an adjunct to echocardiography in grading, and as a prognostic marker in challenging cases. They also explore the ability of calcium scoring to predict outcomes following transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
