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

Congenital portosystemic venous connections are rare vascular anomalies that connect the portal and systemic venous circulations. These vascular lesions can lead to complex and varied physiologic manifestations in single-ventricle patients as they progress through the various stages of palliation in the Fontan pathway. Specifically, these connections may be unmasked after a superior cavopulmonary anastomosis operation, but then "re-masked" after Fontan completion. We describe the complex physiology with an illustrative case report and present a novel method to unmask these pathologic connections after Fontan completion to facilitate transcatheter occlusion and resolve downstream symptoms.
