Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing for Surgical Risk Stratification in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease.

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
Adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients often require repeat cardiothoracic surgery, which may result in significant morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are few pre-operative risk assessment tools available. In the general adult population, pre-operative cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has a predictive value for post-operative morbidity and mortality following major non-cardiac surgery. The utility of CPET for risk assessment in ACHD patients requiring cardiothoracic surgery has not been evaluated. Retrospective chart review was conducted on 75 ACHD patients who underwent CPET less than 12 months prior to major cardiothoracic surgery at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. Minimally invasive procedures, cardiomyopathy, acquired heart disease, single ventricle physiology, and heart transplant patients were excluded. Demographic information, CPET results, and peri-operative surgical data were collected. The study population was 56% male with a median age of 25 years (17-58). Prolonged post-operative length of stay correlated with increased ventilatory efficiency slope (V
