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

The case of a 71-year-old male with end stage heart failure and severe mitral regurgitation is presented, where percutaneous indirect mitral annuloplasty was performed. During device implantation in the coronary sinus the circumflex artery was compromised at two anatomic locations, while the mitral regurgitation was efficiently reduced. After weighing risks and alternative therapeutic options, stent implantation was chosen as bailout strategy to leave the device in place and retain the efficient MR reduction. The anatomical proximity of Cx and coronary sinus in the mitral valve plane bears the risk of circumflex artery damage during surgical and interventional mitral repair. Usually, a device exchange solves the problem of arterial flow limitation in most cases. While stent implantation remains off label use in this setting and should not be performed without critical evaluation, it has been performed successfully in similar clinical settings as well (e.g. artery stenosis by surgical suture).
