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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate and discuss the outcomes of creating a single systemic-pulmonary shunt and reconstruction of the pulmonary artery continuity in patients with a single functional ventricle, absent central pulmonary artery, and bilateral patent ductus arteriosus.
methodsSix infants diagnosed with a functional single ventricle, absent central pulmonary artery, and bilateral patent ductus arteriosus were treated by creating a single systemic-pulmonary shunt and reconstructing the pulmonary artery continuity (primary operation) between January 2010 and September 2020. Pulmonary artery continuity was ensured using the remnant pulmonary artery and an autologous pericardial patch in five patients and a rolled autologous pericardium in one patient.
resultsAll patients eventually underwent total cavopulmonary connection. Two patients underwent intrapulmonary artery septation before Glenn or total cavopulmonary connection procedure. The median follow-up period was 9.02 years (interquartile range, 3.90-9.53). No late deaths were observed.
conclusionsOur strategy of establishing a single systemic-pulmonary shunt with reconstruction of the pulmonary artery continuity was useful for treating patients with a functional single ventricle with absent central pulmonary artery and bilateral patent ductus arteriosus. This procedure helped accomplish pulmonary artery growth and ensured an appropriate volume load after total cavopulmonary connection.
