Long-Term Results of Congenital Aortic Stenosis Treatment in the Era of Percutaneous Balloon Valvuloplasty: Up to 33 Years Follow-Up.

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
Background The goal of this study was to evaluate long-term results of percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty (BVPL) used exclusively for initial management of congenital aortic stenosis in children. Methods and Results A total of 409 consecutive pediatric patients (134 newborns, 275 older patients) who underwent BVPL as initial treatment of aortic stenosis in a single nationwide pediatric center were subjected to a retrospective follow-up study. The resulting follow-up time reached a median of 18.5 (interquartile range, 12.2-25.1) years. Successful BVPL was defined by residual Doppler gradient <70/40 (systolic/mean) mm Hg. The primary end point was death; secondary end points included any valve reintervention, balloon revalvuloplasty, any aortic valve surgery, and aortic valve replacement, respectively. BVPL effectively reduced the peak and mean gradient both immediately and at the latest follow-up (
