Proximal Aortic Dilatation and Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Patients with Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: Is There a Relationship? A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.

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.

Abstract
Aortopathy is a known complication whose incidence is growing within the population of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) patients. Its pathology and relationship with other comorbidities remain unclear. This study was designed to determine the prevalence and predictors of proximal aortic dilatation after TOF repair. We retrospectively investigated all patients who underwent follow-up cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR; at least 4 years after TOF repair) between March 2004 and December 2019. The dimensions at the ascending aorta (AAo) and sinus of Valsalva (SoV) levels were measured. Aortic dilatation was defined as an internal aortic diameter that was >2 standard deviation of the previously published normal values. We included 77 patients (mean age 28.9 ± 10.5 years, 41.5% female, mean follow-up of 24.5 ± 8.1 years). AAo and SoV were dilated in 19 (24.6%) and 43 (55.8%) patients, respectively. Patients with dilated AAo and SoV were older during the corrective surgery (
