Effect of Chest Physiotherapy on Improving Pulmonary Function in Dealing With Congenital Heart Disease and Lung Collapse: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a condition in which the ductus arteriosus fails to close after birth. We present the case of a three-month-old female infant admitted to a tertiary care center with the complaint of cough, poor feeding, and breathing difficulties. Based on the investigatory finding, she was diagnosed with PDA with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), an atrial septal defect (ASD), coarctation of the aorta (COA), and pneumonia. In this patient, a left posterolateral thoracotomy was done to accomplish PDA ligation and coarctation repair. The outcomes of the infants were documented using the face, legs, activity, cry, consolability (FLACC) scale, and arterial blood gas analysis. The therapeutic aim specified an increase in oxygen saturation, enhanced total functional capacity, optimized respiration, cleared chest secretions, and normalized cardiovascular function. The effectiveness of the cardiorespiratory physiotherapy treatment regimen based on the patient's existing state of health is the focus of this case report. The outcome variable indicated that the patient's functional recovery was optimal.
