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

backgroundWe aim to evaluate the impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on clinical outcomes in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

methodsWe conducted a PRISMA-guided systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing SGLT2 inhibitor therapy with standard care in adults undergoing TAVI. PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to November 2025. Outcomes included all-cause mortality, heart failure (HF) hospitalization, myocardial infarction (MI), cardiac death, stroke, pacemaker implantation, acute kidney injury (AKI), and bleeding events. Effect sizes were pooled using random-effects models, while time-to-event data were reconstructed for survival analyses.

resultsFour studies comprising 12,374 patients were included. SGLT2 inhibitor therapy significantly reduced all-cause mortality (RR 0.62, 95% CI 0.49–0.78), HF hospitalization (RR 0.67, 95% CI 0.50–0.91), MI (RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.73–0.93), and bleeding events (RR 0.81, 95% CI 0.72–0.90). Effects on cardiac death, stroke, pacemaker implantation, and AKI were not statistically significant (P > 0.05).

conclusionSGLT2 inhibitor therapy in patients undergoing TAVI was associated with reductions in all-cause mortality, HF hospitalization, and MI. However, these findings are based on a limited and heterogeneous evidence base, largely derived from observational studies, and should be interpreted with caution. The results should not be considered definitive or generalizable to all TAVI populations. Further adequately powered randomized trials are required.
