Management of a parturient with uncorrected tetralogy of Fallot in shock: an anesthetic challenge.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease. The survival of patients with uncorrected TOF till the fourth decade of life is rare (around 3%). Pregnancy in a patient with uncorrected TOF requires a multidisciplinary approach. A confluence of pregnancy, uncorrected TOF and shock is infrequent. The state of hypovolaemia and a decrease in systemic vascular resistance due to anaesthetic agents increase the right to left shunt. The decrease in pulmonary blood flow provokes a 'hypercyanotic spell'. We report the successful management of 30-year-old pregnant (G3P2A2L0) with uncorrected TOF, presenting to the emergency department with incomplete abortion in shock.
