Effects of stent implantation for peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis on pulmonary vascular hemodynamics and right ventricular function in a patient with repaired tetralogy of Fallot.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Stent implantation is an effective alternative to surgery and balloon angioplasty for the treatment of stenotic vascular lesions. However, there is concern about the hemodynamic consequences related to the loss of vascular elasticity caused by the non-compliant property of the implanted stent. Here we report data for pulmonary vascular impedance and right ventricular performance after implantation of balloon-expanded stents for peripheral pulmonary stenosis in a 13-year-old girl with repaired pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect. Stent implantation reduced total vascular resistance, low-frequency impedance and wave reflection, and improved right ventricular contractile performance measured by the pressure-area relationship. However, pulmonary vascular wall stiffness remained elevated after stenting, and it was suggested that stent implantation resulted in a net increase in vascular wall stiffness. The long-term effects of implanted stents on vascular and ventricular hemodynamics need to be clarified.
