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

objectivesThe main objective of the study is to characterize the effects of genetic abnormalities/syndromes (GA/S) on perioperative outcomes of cardiac surgeries involving repair of conotruncal heart defects (CTHD).

designThe study involves a single-center retrospective analysis of patients who underwent complete repair of CTHDs (tetralogy of Fallot [TOF], truncus arteriosus, interrupted aortic arch, and ventricular septal defect with coarctation) between January 2000 and December 2015. The primary outcome was the post operative length of stay (PLOS). The secondary outcomes were mortality, cardiac complications, hematologic complications, infections, and number of medications-at-discharge.

settingCardiac intensive care unit in a tertiary pediatric hospital in South Florida that performs around 300 open-heart surgeries a year. SUBJECTS: A total of 177 patients with CTHDs who underwent cardiac surgeries in the stated time period were included in the final study cohort. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN

resultsMajority of patients had TOF (72.5%) and 46 (26%) had GA/S. The most common GA/S was 22q11 deletion (37%). PLOS was significantly increased in patients with GA/S (

conclusionsPerioperative outcomes in patients with GA/S suggested an increased residual cardiovascular disease and increased resource usage. Notably, this is the first study demonstrating the effect of race and ethnicity on PLOS in CTHD patients.
