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

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the second most prevalent valvular heart disease, classified as primary (degenerative) or secondary (functional) based on its underlying etiology. Accurate assessment of MR severity, mechanism, and prognosis is crucial for guiding therapeutic decision-making, including surgical and transcatheter interventions. Cardiac imaging plays a pivotal role in this evaluation, wherein transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography is considered the first-line modality. Advancements in three-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging allowed to refine the quantification and characterization of MR, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and risk stratification. This review aims to provide an overview of multimodal cardiac imaging and the most relevant parameters to assess MR, highlighting key milestones, novel techniques, and their implications in clinical practice.
