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

backgroundThis article compares the real-world performance and safety of the three transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) platforms: Myval, Sapien, and Evolut in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis and low to moderate surgical risk. PATIENTS AND

methodsBetween September 2019 and September 2023, 1053 TAVI procedures were performed in the University Medical Centre Ljubljana, Slovenia. We used propensity-score match analysis to compare the Myval, Sapien, and Evolut platforms. 180 patients were enrolled in the propensity-score matching study, 60 for each platform. The study endpoints included haemodynamic outcomes compared to baseline, in-hospital clinical safety outcomes, and all-cause mortality at 30 days and one year.

resultsChanges in peak aortic valve velocity, mean aortic gradient, effective orifice area, and left ventricular ejection fraction were comparable between the platforms. After propensity score matching (tri-match), the rates of stroke (3.4%

conclusionsThe tri-match analysis of the real-world aortic stenosis patients with low to moderate surgical risk treated with the Myval, Sapien, and Evolut series showed comparable performance, safety, efficacy, and survival.
