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

purpose of reviewThe development of biventricular repair and conversion pathways for patients with borderline hypoplastic heart disease represents an area of recent inquiry and innovation. This review summarizes emerging techniques and novel treatment algorithms for borderline hypoplastic heart disease with a focus on surgical advances within the last 10 years. RECENT

findingsMany patients with borderline hypoplastic heart disease are amenable to primary biventricular repair, or biventricular conversion following single-ventricle palliation coupled with ventricular rehabilitation strategies. New insights into the potential for growth and recovery of borderline ventricles have been uncovered. However, questions remain regarding optimal patient selection and the long-term outcomes of select patient groups treated with single-ventricle palliation versus biventricular repair/conversion or transplantation. Efforts to direct a greater proportion of borderline hypoplastic heart patients towards a biventricular circulation are accelerating and represent important avenues for progress and future research in the field of congenital heart disease.
