Hemodynamic assessment of atrial septal defects.
Review in Journal of thoracic disease, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital cardiac anomalies. ASD can present as an isolated lesion in an otherwise normal heart or in association with other congenital heart conditions. Regardless of the type of ASD, the direction and degree of shunting across the communication is mainly determined by the difference in compliance between the right and left ventricle. Hemodynamics in children is characterized by left-to-right shunting, dilated right heart structures and normal pulmonary artery pressures (PAP). Patients diagnosed at adult age often present with complications related to long-standing volume overload such as pulmonary artery hypertension and right and left ventricular dysfunction. Diagnostic catheterization is usually not indicated unless there is suggestion of pulmonary hypertension on echocardiography. In older patients and/or in those with ventricular dysfunction, measurement of left heart pressures during temporary balloon occlusion is recommended prior to device closure as it may not be tolerated. In ASD associated with other congenital malformations, shunting degree and direction will depend upon underlying condition. Restrictive ASD can result in significant hemodynamic compromise in neonates with conditions such as hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA). In most cases, hemodynamics can be estimated with echocardiography only.
