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

Three-dimensional (3D) printing refers to the process by which physical objects are built by depositing materials in layers based on a specific digital design. It was initially used in manufacture industry. Inspired by the technology, clinicians have recently attempted to integrate 3D printing into medical applications. One of the medical specialties that has recently made such attempt is cardiology, especially in the field of structural heart disease (SHD). SHD refers to a group of non-coronary cardiovascular disorders and related interventions. Obvious examples are aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, atrial septal defect, and known or potential left atrial appendage (LAA) clots. In the last decade, cardiologists have witnessed a dramatic increase in the types and complexity of catheter-based interventions for SHD. Current imaging modalities have important limitations in accurate delineation of cardiac anatomies necessary for SHD interventions. Application of 3D printing in SHD interventional planning enables tangible appreciation of cardiac anatomy and allows
