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

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with concomitant absent pulmonary valve syndrome (APVS) constitutes a rare prenatal condition characterized by rudimentary cusps of the pulmonary valve, pulmonary regurgitation, and a variable degree of dilatation of the main and branch pulmonary arteries. Although early prenatal diagnosis of this complex malformation is feasible, the antenatal course of affected fetuses clearly depends on the presence of associated structural (absence of the ductus venosus) and chromosomal anomalies (microdeletion 22q11, DiGeorge syndrome). Postnatally, the outcome is closely related to the degree of airway obstruction and subsequent bronchomalacia. We describe the beneficial contribution of three- and four-dimensional ultrasound in establishing the diagnosis of TOF-APVS in a fetus at age 22 gestational weeks.
