Prognostic Value of CTA-Derived Left Ventricular Mass in Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease.

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
For therapeutic decisions regarding uni- or biventricular surgical repair in congenital heart disease (CHD), left ventricular mass (LVM) is an important factor. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine the LVM of infants with CHD in thoracic computed tomography angiographies (CTAs) and to evaluate its usefulness as a prognostic parameter, with special attention paid to hypoplastic left heart (HLH) patients. Manual segmentation of the left ventricular endo- and epicardial volumes was performed in CTAs of 132 infants. LVMs were determined from these volumes and normalized to body surface area. LVMs of patients with different types of CHD were compared to each other using analyses of variances (ANOVA). An LVM cutoff for discrimination between uni- and biventricular repair was determined using receiver operating characteristics. Survival rates were calculated using Kaplan-Meier statistics. Patients with a clinical diagnosis of an HLH had significantly lower mean LVM (21.88 g/m
