Evaluating the Effectiveness of Stenting for Aortic Coarctation.

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
backgroundCoarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a congenital cardiovascular malformation involving narrowing of the thoracic aorta just distal to the left subclavian artery. The aim of our study was to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of endovascular treatment for CoA by using invasive aortic catheterization.
methodsAll patients with CoA who underwent treatment by aortic stent implantation between September 1, 2003, and February 1, 2019, at the "Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center," in Athens, Greece, were evaluated. Patients were treated with either bare (uncovered) Cheatham-Platinum (bCP) or covered Cheatham-Platinum (cCP) stent implantations. Invasive aortic pressure measurements were recorded before and after the endovascular intervention.
resultsA total of 48, eight zig CP stents, comprising 24 bCP and 24 cCP stents were implanted in 47 patients. The mean aortic diameter (mm) at the CoA lesion increased from 9.7 ± 3.3 to 19.2 ± 2.9 mm (
conclusionsInvasive aortic catheterization provided evidence that endovascular stenting with either bare or covered stents is efficient in treating patients with CoA.
