Sutureless Aortic Valve Replacement with Annular Plication Technique in an Oversized Annulus.
Article in Interdisciplinary cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, 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
We present the case of a 72-year-old man with symptomatic severe aortic regurgitation and moderate aortic stenosis, and an annular diameter of 30 mm, exceeding the recommended range for sutureless Perceval valve implantation. To reduce the annular size to allow implantation of the Perceval XL valve, an annular plication technique was employed, involving three horizontal mattress sutures placed at the interleaflet triangles. A totally endoscopic approach via right mini-thoracotomy was utilized. Postoperative echocardiography confirmed excellent valve positioning and no paravalvular leak. The patient recovered uneventfully and remained asymptomatic with good prosthesis function at the 3-year follow-up. This case demonstrated that annular plication enables the safe use of the Perceval valve in patients with a mildly oversized annulus and may expand its applicability in minimally invasive settings.
