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

backgroundIn dextro-transposition of the great arteries (dTGA), the aorta and the pulmonary artery are transposed in position, when aorta arises from the right ventricle and pulmonary artery arises from the left ventricle. The present study was designed to assess three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography-derived tricuspid annular (TA) abnormalities in adult patients with dTGA late after atrial switch operations. It was also examined whether differences in TA morphology and function exist between Senning- and Mustard-procedures.

methodsThe study consisted of 14 adult dTGA patients (mean age: 29.9±8.3 years, 6 males), who underwent Mustard-procedure (n=7) at the age of 1.57±0.53 years or Senning-procedure (n=7) at the age of 1.42±0.53 years. Their results were compared to 28 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects (30.3±4.9 years, 14 males).

resultsDilated end-systolic and end-diastolic TA diameters, areas and perimeters could be detected in dTGA patients as compared to those of controls. TA functional properties calculated from TA diameter (TAFS) and area (TAFAC) data proved to be deteriorated in dTGA patients. No differences could be detected either in TA dimensions, or in TA functional properties between Senning- and Mustard-operated dTGA patients. TA plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) was reduced, which did not correlate with TAFAC and TAFS in dTGA patients.

conclusionsIn dTGA, dilated end-systolic and end-diastolic TA is accompanied with deteriorated TA functional properties regardless of which atrial switch procedure was performed. Correlations between TAPSE representing longitudinal movement of the TA and TAFAC and TAFS representing sphincter-like movement of the TA disappeared, which could partially explain accompanying tricuspid functional regurgitations.
