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

Aortic stenosis has become the most prevalent valvular disease with increasing life expectancy and the ageing of the population, representing a significant clinical burden for health care providers. Its treatment has been revolutionized by transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as a safe and minimally invasive option for elderly patients. Left ventricular (LV) functional measurement is of particular importance before TAVR, however, increased afterload significantly influences the conventional echocardiographic parameters. Non-invasive myocardial work examines myocardial deformation in the context of instantaneous LV pressure, thus, it might be a more reliable measure of LV function. Accordingly, we aimed to study non-invasive myocardial work and its relationship with functional outcome following TAVR.We enrolled 90 TAVR candidates (80 [75-84] years; 44% female). Using echocardiography, we quantified ejection fraction (EF), global longitudinal strain (GLS), global myocardial work index (GWI) and global constructive work (GCW) before and 12 months after the procedure. Serum NT-proBNP levels were also measured. EF did not change (52.6 ± 13.1 vs. 54.2 ± 10.5%; p = 0.199), while GLS increased (-13.5 ± 4.6 vs. -15.2 ± 3.8%; p < 0.001). GWI decreased (1913 ± 799 vs. 1654 ± 613 mmHg%; p < 0.001) and so did GCW (2365 ± 851 vs. 2177 ± 652 mmHg%; p = 0.018). History of atrial fibrillation (AF) (β = 0.349) and preprocedural GCW (β = -0.238) were independent predictors of postprocedural NT-proBNP (p < 0.001).GLS, GWI and GCW changed after TAVR while there was no alteration in EF. The preprocedural GCW and history of AF were independent predictors of postprocedural NT-proBNP. Accordingly, myocardial work indices may help patient selection and the prediction of the functional outcome in this population.
