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

Congenital heart defects (CHD) occur in ∼1 in every 100 live births. In addition, an estimated 10% of fetal loss is due to severe forms of CHD. This makes heart defects the most frequently occurring birth defect and single cause of in utero fatality in humans. There is considerable evidence that CHD is heritable, indicating a strong contribution from genetic risk factors. There are also known external environmental exposures that are significantly associated with risk for CHD. Hence, the majority of CHD cases have long been considered to be multifactorial, or generally caused by the confluence of several risk factors potentially from genetic, epigenetic, and environmental sources. Consequently, a specific cause can be very difficult to ascertain, although patterns of associations are very important to prevention. While highly protective of the fetus, the
