Mechanical Thrombectomy of an Obstructive Mechanical Mitral Valve Thrombus Using the FlowTriever Device With Embolic Protection: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions, 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
Management of obstructive mechanical mitral valve thrombosis in patients with prohibitive surgical risk and contraindication to thrombolytics is not well defined. Transcatheter approaches, such as manipulation of immobile valve leaflets and aspiration of the obstructive thrombus using various devices, have been successfully attempted. We report the first case of mechanical thrombectomy of an obstructive mechanical mitral valve thrombosis using the FlowTriever system. Future research should focus on developing comprehensive embolic protection strategies and larger studies to establish the safety, efficacy, and indications of this procedure.
