Impact of different coarctation therapies on aortic stiffness: phase-contrast MRI study.
Article in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Coarctation of the aorta has been associated with increased thoracic aortic stiffness in adolescents and young adults. However, the effects of different therapeutic strategies on aortic stiffness in a young population is unknown. This study aimed to non-invasively assess aortic stiffness between different repair or intervention strategies in patients with coarctation of the aorta. Forty-nine coarctation patients who underwent either surgery (n = 26), balloon angioplasty (n = 14), or stent implantation (n = 12), and 26 age- and size-matched normotensive healthy controls underwent evaluation of thoracic aortic stiffness and flow hemodynamics via phase-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance. In children who had undergone surgical repair or balloon angioplasty, ascending aortic stiffness was increased when measured via pulse wave velocity (PWV) when compared to normal controls (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, ascending aortic distensibility and relative area change (RAC) was significantly lower in surgically and balloon treated groups (both P < 0.01). Stiffness (PWV), distensibility, and RAC in the ascending aorta were not statistically different between stented patients and controls. The ascending aorta of children following surgical repair or balloon angioplasty demonstrated signs of elevated stiffness, whereas those treated by stent implantation showed no difference in stiffness markers when compared to normal controls.
