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

Subclinical leaflet thrombosis is an imaging phenomenon observed after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and characterized by hypoattenuating leaflet thickening (HALT) on computed tomography angiography. The clinical implications and underlying causes remain uncertain. Hypercoagulability, a component of Virchow's triad, may contribute to thrombus formation on bioprosthetic leaflets, but data on hypercoagulable disorders in TAVI patients and their impact on HALT are limited. The PROSTHESIS study (Prothrombotic States in Transcatheter Heart Valve Subclinical Leaflet Thrombosis) is a single-center observational cohort study aiming to include 130 TAVI patients. This pilot study aimed to (i) assess the effect of hypercoagulable disorders on HALT prevalence and (ii) evaluate their impact on the natural history of HALT. Patients were screened for common hypercoagulable disorders using genetic and functional assays and underwent multimodal imaging one year after TAVI to detect HALT. In patients with HALT, post-implant imaging was repeated after three months to assess its progression. Early results comparing 52 TAVI patients with 52 matched controls undergoing coronary angiography showed similar thrombophilia prevalence between the groups (16% vs. 12%,
