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

backgroundAtrial septal defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart defects (CHDs) with prevalence of 8% to 10% in children with CHD and incidence of 56 per 100000 live births. It is categorized according to the defect site in which the most common form is secundum ASD (ASD2) with the defect in the central part of the atrial septum. CASE REPORT: In our case series, we evaluated five children aged under one year old with ASD2 and pulmonary hypertension (PH). All the patients were referred for surgical ASD closure. Their PH was improved and the size of right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) became normal during the follow-up and one year after the surgery all of them had normal pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) with normal RA and RV size.

conclusionAccording to our study and those done by others, the prevalence of PH in infants with ASD is low, but when this combination is found without any other CHD, ASD closure should be considered.
