A catheter-based interventional strategy redirects hepatic vein flows after Fontan procedure in left isomerism to treat severe hypoxemia.
Article in Annals of pediatric cardiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations after the Kawashima procedure causing severe hypoxemia are treated by Fontan surgery that redirects hepatic venous blood to the pulmonary circulation. Alignment of the hepatic venous conduit toward both pulmonary arteries is crucial for their regression. Persistent hypoxemia due to nonregressed malformations in one lung often warrants a repeat surgery to redirect hepatic venous flows. Catheter-based redirection of Fontan flows is not commonly performed as metallic stents and devices may predispose to thrombus formation in the circuit. This report highlights a patient with persistent arteriovenous malformations in the left lung leading to severe disabling hypoxemia that was managed in the catheterization laboratory with an innovative strategy to redirect Fontan flows toward the affected left lung.
