Two approaches for newborns with critical congenital heart disease: a comparative study.
Article in World journal of pediatrics : WJP, 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
backgroundPrenatal diagnosis and planned peripartum care is an unexplored concept in China. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the "prenatal diagnosis and postnatal treatment integrated model" for newborns with critical congenital heart disease.
methodsThe medical records of neonates (≤ 28 days) admitted to Fuwai Hospital were reviewed retrospectively from January 2019 to December 2020. The patients were divided into "prenatal diagnosis and postnatal treatment integrated group" (n = 47) and "non-integrated group" (n = 69).
resultsThe age of admission to the hospital and the age at surgery were earlier in the integrated group than in the non-integrated group (5.2 ± 7.2 days vs. 11.8 ± 8.0 days, P < 0.001; 11.9 ± 7.0 days vs. 16.5 ± 7.7 days, P = 0.001, respectively). The weight at surgery also was lower in the integrated group than in the non-integrated group (3.3 ± 0.4 kg vs. 3.6 ± 0.6 kg, P = 0.010). Longer postoperative recovery time was needed in the integrated group, with a median mechanical ventilation time of 97 h (interquartile range 51-259 h) vs. 69 h (29-168 h) (P = 0.030) and with intensive care unit time of 13.0 days (8.0-21.0 days) vs. 9.0 days (4.5-16.0 days) (P = 0.048). No significant difference was observed in the all-cause mortality (2.1 vs. 8.7%, P = 0.238), but it was significantly lower in the integrated group for transposition of the great arteries (0 vs. 18.8%, log rank P = 0.032).
conclusionsThe prenatal diagnosis and postnatal treatment integrated model could significantly shorten the diagnosis and hospitalization interval of newborns, and surgical intervention could be performed with a lower risk of death, especially for transposition of the great arteries.
