Challenges in diagnosing pulmonary embolism in an adult with Fontan physiology: a case report.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 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
Background: With the increasing longevity of congenital heart disease patients and limited number of adult congenital heart disease specialists, it is becoming increasingly imperative for general cardiologists to understand not only the unique physiology of Fontan patients but also imaging protocol considerations when treating this group of patients. Case summary: Here, we present a patient with a history of congenital tricuspid atresia status after the Fontan procedure who presented for gut translocation-related bacteraemia. Importantly, the patient was falsely diagnosed with pulmonary embolism resulting from inaccurate acquisition of computed tomography imaging. Discussion: This case illustrates the complex intricacies that clinicians should consider when facing the challenge of treating Fontan patients.
