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

Pulmonary artery hypoplasia is a rare malformation of childhood that is usually associated with cardiac abnormalities. In the absence of these cardiac malformations it is discovered later when respiratory signs appear. It was a 56-year-old patient who had been referred for dyspnea with cough. The physical examination was normal. Chest X-ray, thoracic computed tomography (CT) scan and echocardiography suggested the diagnosis of hypoplasia of the left pulmonary artery without associated cardiac malformations. The early diagnosis of hypoplasia of the pulmonary artery allows the close follow-up of these patient and the planning of an adequate management.
