1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A double-barrelled aorta was detected in a female newborn with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. Double-barrelled aorta had been previously described as persistence of the fifth pharyngeal arch, but its existence continues to be debated. Recent embryologic studies suggest that double-barrelled aorta is more likely explained by other developing processes in the majority of cases. In our case, catheter angiography confirmed the presence of the high aortic arch and double-barrelled aorta. The upper lumen was located above the level of the clavicles. These findings suggested that the persistence of the segment of dorsal aorta between the third and fourth embryonic arches and the double-barrelled aorta was more likely a consequence of persistence of the third and fourth pharyngeal arches. Detailed imaging and embryologic considerations played an important role in accurate assessment of the origin of the double-barrelled aorta. <
