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
backgroundModerate/severe mitral regurgitation (MR) can affect the prognosis of patients with transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, few studies have focused on the role played by papillary muscles (PMs).
aimsWe intend to explore the relationship between PMs and MR outcome after TAVR.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 1159 consecutive patients who underwent TAVR. The 125 patients who had MR ≥ 3+ grade were divided into improved MR (IMR) group and non-improved (NMR) group according to the grading of MR at 6 months after operation. MSCT was used to analyze the shape and locate the attachment of PMs. The deformation and synchrony of the PMs attachment were analyzed using two-dimensional speckle tracking. Associations with MR improvement after TAVR were explored.
resultsA total of 125 patients (IMR 93 and NMR 32; mean age, 72 years ± 8) were included. There was no significant difference in the deformation and synchrony of myocardium at attachment and in the PMs morphology between groups. However, the range of PM attachment was increased in the NMR group compared to the IMR group (1.94 ± 0.91 vs. 1.40 ± 0.65, p = 0.004; 2.16 ± 0.88 vs. 1.80 ± 0.80, p = 0.035). Inferior displacement of PMs (OR: 5.629; 95% CI: 1.421, 22.293; p = 0.014) was found to be an independent predictor of less MR improvement after TAVR.
conclusionThe PMs in the NMR group had no significant morphological tendency, but their attachment range was significantly increased and more toward apical. Inferior displacement of PMs was an independent risk factor for unalleviated MR.
