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

backgroundThe optimal timing, need for primary/staged procedure in patients undergoing univentricular palliation, is debatable.

aimsWe performed this study to assess the exercise performance of patients undergoing various forms of univentricular palliation. SETTING AND

designThis was a retrospective, prospective comparative study conducted at a multispecialty tertiary referral center. PATIENTS AND

methodsBetween January 2012 and June 2015, 117 patients undergoing either bidirectional Glenn (BDG) ( STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Comparisons between subgroups for continuous data were made with Student's

resultsPatients who underwent BDG with open antegrade pulmonary blood flow (APBF) had higher saturations (oxygen saturation [SpO

conclusionsWe observed no differences in exercise parameters of patients undergoing BDG with or without APBF. Extracardiac TCPC patients had better exercise capacity but longer postoperative hospital stay and pleural effusions than patients with lateral tunnel Fontan. Fenestrated TCPC patients seemed to fare better than nonfenestrated ones. Patients undergoing TCPC had better exercise capacity than patients undergoing BDG alone.
