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

We report the case of a patient diagnosed with extreme tetralogy of Fallot who received subclavian-pulmonary artery shunt at the age of 3 years and underwent corrective surgery at the age of 16 years. The patient developed progressive effort dyspnea and left ventricular dysfunction from the age of 40 years. The exploratory finding of a continuous jugular and left subclavian murmur prompted an echocardiographic study that evidenced a continuous flow in the suprasternal view. CT study confirmed the patency of the surgical subclavian-pulmonary artery shunt, which was percutaneously embolised with the implantation of an Amplatzer plug, with a good final outcome and no residual flow. The patient showed a satisfactory development with clinical improvement, decreased left ventricular volume and enhanced left ventricular function.
