Long-Term Outcomes After an Individualized Strategy in Patients with Pulmonary Atresia and Intact Ventricular Septum.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 2022. 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
This retrospective cohort study aimed to explore the long-term outcomes of an individualized strategy in patients with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum (PAIVS). We analyzed survival and reintervention rates and identified risk factors for outcomes in patients with PAIVS treated based on individual right heart structures between 1979 and 2019. Ninety-five patients were included in this study. The z-scores of the pulmonary annulus, tricuspid annulus, and right ventricular end-diastolic volume were - 3.30 (- 15.15 to 1.83), - 0.70 (- 4.65 to 2.33), and - 1.51 (- 6.35 to 1.18), respectively. Right ventricular-dependent coronary circulation occurred in 15% of the patients. Among the 63 patients attempting biventricular strategy at first, 55 patients achieved biventricular circulation, 3 patients had one-and-a-half circulation, and 4 patients died perioperatively. Among the 33 patients attempting univentricular strategy at first, 10 patients died before the completion of Fontan operation, 17 patients (48%) accomplished Fontan operation, and 5 patients waited for Fontan operation. In one patient, conversion to biventricular circulation occurred. During the follow-up period of 720 person-years, the 20-year survival rate was significantly higher in patients with biventricular circulation than in those patients with univentricular circulation (93% vs. 67%, P < 0.001). Freedom from reintervention rates at 20 years was significantly lower in patients with biventricular circulation than in those patients with univentricular circulation (29% vs. 72%, P < 0.001). The pulmonary annulus z-score was an independent risk factor for reintervention in patients with biventricular circulation. Patients with biventricular circulation had an acceptable survival rate, but a high reintervention rate. Meanwhile, patients with univentricular circulation had high mortality before the completion of Fontan operation, although the reintervention rate was relatively low.
