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

backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, its effect on procedural and follow-up performance after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains controversial. METHODS AND

resultsWe performed an observational study of all consecutive patients treated with a transfemoral TAVR in a single-center cohort (n = 1818). All patients were stratified by diabetes status and gender. All-cause 3-year mortality was the primary endpoint. Male patients with DM were identified to have substantially increased 3-year mortality [125/314 (39.8%)] compared to males without DM [142/478 (29.7%), p < 0.01]. Male patients with DM had significantly higher 3-year mortality in comparison to female patients with (p < 0.01) or without DM (p < 0.01). There was no difference in 3-year mortality for female patients with [135/465 (29.0%)] and without DM [151/554 (27.3%); p = 0.70]. This increase in mortality in male DM patients was triggered by both cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality. Furthermore, DM served as an independent predictor of 3-year mortality after TAVR selectively only in men. The interaction between male gender and diabetes mellitus was identified as an independent predictor of 3-year mortality [HR 1.88 (1.25; 2.82); p < 0.01]. DM did not affect 30-day mortality for the overall cohort and for males.

conclusionMales with DM are a high-risk subgroup of patients after TAVR and require close medical attention including aggressive therapy of modifiable risk factors. Intensified diabetes management may improve long-term survival after TAVR.
