Hypoplastic left heart syndrome [HLHS]: treatment options in present era.
Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is the most severe form of congenital heart defect (CHD). The first successful intervention for it was undertaken by Norwood in 1983. Since then, there have been much development in the pre, intra, and postoperative treatment option in staged palliative surgical procedures. Early diagnostic management, prenatal interventions, innovative diagnostic methods, constantly modified surgical techniques, and hybridization contribute to a significant progress in treatment options. This will allow for defining an optimal strategy of improving survival and quality of life in HLHS patients. The development of intervention cardiology makes possible the stepwise treatment of the defect with one operation only. The first and third stage may be done by hybrid or interventional methods, then only the second stage of treatment needs to be done surgically. The world experience and all the available literature says that the 1st-stage procedure could be done now safely either directly or with a bridge to Norwood followed by the stage 2 with a Glen or Hemi-Fontan and followed by a Fontan down the lane surgically.
