Aortic dissection in a Chinese patient 31 years after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2020. 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
Aortic dilation has been increasingly recognized in congenital heart diseases, and aortic dissection is one of the important complications. We report a case of aortic dissection in a patient 31 years after repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and review reported cases. While aortic dissection is uncommon, aortic dilation is common among patients with repaired TOF and it appeared progressive in some patients. Based on the reported cases, progressive aortic dilation appeared as the pre-requisite for aortic dissection, although other factors might be involved. Regular surveillance and monitoring for aortic complications should be incorporated into clinical practice. <
