Primary transcatheter closure of post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture using amplatzer atrial septal occlusion device: A study from tertiary care in South India.

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
objectiveThe study investigated effectiveness of transcatheter closure of post-myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal rupture (VSR) using atrial septal device (ASD) occluder in a cohort of patients admitted at our institute.
methodThis was a retrospective, observational and single center study, which included patients who were treated with transcatheter closure for post-MI VSR at our tertiary care center between May 2000 and August 2014 depending upon inclusion and exclusion criteria. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 30-days follow-up. The MELD-XI (Model for End Stage Liver Disease) score was used as a predictor for poor outcome in these patients.
resultsA total of 21 patients (mean age 66.4±5.9years) were included in the study. Study cohort predominantly included male patients (n=15; 71.4%) and patients with single vessel disease (n=15; 71.4%). Revascularization of the culprit lesion, before VSR closure, was attempted in 6 patients. Except one patient (treated with Cera
conclusionPrimary transcatheter VSR closure using ASD occluders is a feasible approach which can provide reasonable survival outcomes along with equitable mortality rates.
