Hybrid Palliation for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: Role of Echocardiography.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a spectrum of complex congenital cardiac defects. Although in borderline cases, biventricular repair is a viable option, in the majority of cases, univentricular palliation is the treatment of choice. Hybrid palliation can be a valid alternative to classic Norwood operation in the neonatal period, especially in selected cases such as high-risk patients or borderline left ventricles. Echocardiography is the main diagnostic modality in this pediatric population, from the fetal diagnosis to the subsequent surgical steps of palliative treatment. Hybrid palliation is performed after birth and is characterized by surgical banding of the pulmonary arteries along with transcatheter stenting of the ductus arteriosus. There are some peculiar aspects of cardiac imaging that characterize this type of palliation, and that should be considered in the different phases before and after the procedure. We aimed to review the current literature about the role of echocardiography in the management of patients with hypoplastic left heart undergoing hybrid palliation.
