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

backgroundStenting of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a minimally invasive catheter-based temporary palliative procedure that is an alternative to a surgical shunt in neonates with duct-dependent pulmonary perfusion.

methodsAn observational, single-centre, cross-sectional study of patients with duct-dependent pulmonary perfusion undergoing PDA-stenting as a stage I procedure and an analysis of short- to mid-term follow-up until a subsequent surgical procedure (stage II), with a focus on the interstage course.

resultsTwenty-six patients were treated with PDA-stenting at a median (IQR) age of 7 (4-10) days; 10/26 patients (38.5%) (6/10 single pulmonary perfusion) were intended for later univentricular palliation, 16/26 patients (61.5%) (13/16 single pulmonary perfusion) for biventricular repair. PDA diameter was 2.7 (1.8-3.2) mm, stent diameter 3.5 (3.5-4.0) mm. Immediate procedural success was 88.5%. The procedure was aborted, switching to immediate surgery after stent embolisation, malposition or pulmonary coarctation in three patients (each n = 1). During mid-term follow-up, one patient needed an additional surgical shunt due to severe cyanosis, while five patients underwent successful catheter re-intervention 27 (17-30) days after PDA-stenting due to pulmonary hypo- (

conclusionsPDA-stenting is a feasible, safe treatment option, with the need for interdisciplinary decision-making beforehand and surgical backup afterwards. It allows adequate body and pulmonary vessel growth for subsequent surgical procedures. Factors determining the individual patient's course should be identified in larger prospective studies.
