Combined CT Coronary Artery Assessment and TAVI Planning.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the aorta and the iliofemoral arteries is crucial for preprocedural planning of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS), because it provides details on a variety of aspects required for heart team decision-making. In addition to providing relevant diagnostic information on the degree of aortic valve calcification, CTA allows for a customized choice of the transcatheter heart valve system and the TAVI access route. Furthermore, current guidelines recommend the exclusion of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD) prior to TAVI. The feasibility of coronary artery assessment with CTA in patients scheduled for TAVI has been established previously, and accumulating data support its value. In addition, fractional flow reserve determined from CTA (CT-FFR) and machine learning-based CT-FFR were recently shown to improve its diagnostic yield for this purpose. However, the utilization of CTA for coronary artery evaluation remains limited in this specific population of patients due to the relatively high risk of CAD coexistence with severe AS. Therefore, the current diagnostic work-up prior to TAVI routinely includes invasive catheter coronary angiography at most centers. In this article, the authors address technological prerequisites and CT protocol considerations, discuss pitfalls, review the current literature regarding combined CTA coronary artery assessment and preprocedural TAVI evaluation, and provide an overview of unanswered questions and future research goals within the field.
