Non-physiological Aortic Flow and Aortopathy in Adult Patients with Transposition of the Great Arteries after the Jatene Procedure: A Pilot Study Using Echo Planar 4D Flow MRI.
Article in Magnetic resonance in medical sciences : MRMS : an official journal of Japan Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeDilated aortic root and ascending aorta (AAO) with progressive aortic regurgitation is a well-known sequela after arterial switch operation (ASO) in adults with transposition of the great arteries (TGA). We aimed to quantitatively assess aortic flow profiles in adults with TGA after ASO (Jatene procedure with LeCompte maneuver) using echo planar imaging (EPI) 4D flow MRI.
methodsProspectively, 9 consecutive adults (30.2 ± 6.6 years) after ASO (Jatene operation with LeCompte technique), 13 consecutive adults (34.3 ± 7.2 years) after the atrial switch operation with Senning procedure, and 8 age-matched control patients, who underwent turbo field echo (TFE) EPI 4D flow MRI (average scan time of approximately 4 min), were enrolled.
resultsTGA after ASO showed a markedly dilated sinus of Valsalva, compared to TGA after atrial switch operation (26.6. ± 4.9 vs. 18.6. ± 1.5 mm/cm
conclusionsA non-physiological blood flow pattern of the aortic root was identified in TGA adults after the ASO (Jatene procedure with LeCompte maneuver). Missing spiral looping of the great arteries and the unique structure after the Jatene procedure may play an adjunctive role in promoting aortopathy. The evaluation of aortic flow profile using EPI 4D flow MRI may be useful for risk stratification for aortopathy in this population.
