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

case summaryQuadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital malformation with prevalence of <0.05%, often manifesting in mid- to late adulthood with aortic regurgitation (AR). We present a case of a 60-year-old man with chronic severe AR due to phenotype F quadricuspid aortic valve and mild to moderate functional mitral regurgitation. Cardiac catheterization revealed multivessel coronary artery disease. The patient underwent successful surgical aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthesis and 2-vessel coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Echocardiography at 1-month follow-up showed improved left ventricular volumes, normal aortic bioprosthesis, and trivial mitral regurgitation. This case highlights the role of echocardiography in diagnosing quadricuspid aortic valve and guiding management. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare cause of AR that can be readily diagnosed on echocardiography. Surgical aortic valve replacement is an effective treatment for severe symptomatic AR due to quadricuspid aortic valve.
