Comparison of the response of the right ventricle with endovascular occlusion and surgical closure in adults with atrial septal defect one year after intervention.

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.
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
backgroundUse of the Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) for the closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) has recently become the procedure of choice, while earlier the only treatment for ASD was surgical closure. This study compares the right ventricular indices of the ASO group with the surgical closure group one year after intervention in adults.
methodsFrom January 2008 to February 2010, 38 patients with isolated atrial septal defect of the secundum type one year after surgical (n = 20, age = 27 ± 4 years, 13 females, 7 males) or Amplatzer septal occluder closure (n = 18, age = 25 ± 4 years, 12 females, 6 males) were studied. At the same time, thirty-one age-matched normal subjects (age = 26 ± 6 years, 23 females, 9 males) were included as the control group. Strain and strain rate of the right ventricle were measured.
resultsThe mean values of strain of the midportion were -26% ± 11.7%, -8.9% ± 4.2%, and 24.5% ± 7.4% (P < 0.001). Strain rates of the midportion were -2.19 ± 0.6 s(-1), -1.2 ± 0.4 s(-1), -1.9 ± 0.6 s(-1) (P < 0.001) in ASO, surgery, and control groups, respectively.
conclusionThis study showed that the right ventricle might show better performance in the ASO than the surgery group in adults with ASD in midterm follow-up.
