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

Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) for failing single ventricle (SV) physiology is a complex and challenging problem, which has not yet been satisfactorily addressed. Advancements in surgical strategies and techniques along with intensive care management have substantially improved the outcomes of neonatal palliation for SV physiology, particularly for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). This is associated with a steady increase in the number of SV patients who are susceptible to develop heart failure (HF) and would potentially require MCS at a certain stage in their palliation. We have reviewed the literature regarding the reported modalities of MCS use in the management of SV patients. This includes analysis of various devices and strategies used for failing circulation at distinct stages of the SV pathway: after neonatal palliation, after the superior cavo-pulmonary connection (SCPC), and after total cavo-pulmonary connection (TCPC).
