Exertional Collapse in a Runner With Mixed Aortic Valve Disease: Return to Training After Ross Procedure.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2026. 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
backgroundBicuspid aortic valve represents a rare but important cause of sudden cardiac death in athletes. CASE SUMMARY: A 48-year-old runner with a bicuspid aortic valve with significant mixed aortic valve disease experienced a pulseless electrical activity arrest after a race and underwent a Ross procedure. Fifteen months after surgery, he presented to clinic for guidance on return to training. After reassuring cardiopulmonary exercise testing and shared decision-making, he has returned to training without complications. DISCUSSION: This case highlights considerations of the Ross procedure in the adult athletic population, the complex nature of aortic valve disease in athletes, and guideline-directed postarrest evaluation and return to sport. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: While the Ross procedure offers unique advantages, further data are needed to assess durability in adult athletes. Athletes with at least moderate aortic valve disease warrant formal exercise testing and consideration of sport-specific stressors.
