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

Tessier clefts are skeletal and soft tissue abnormalities of a neonate's facial structures. They could be classified as syndromic and non-syndromic clefts, which can be attributed to disruptions in fetal development and genetic mutations, respectively. Reported cases of these clefts typically document the presence of additional abnormalities associated with these clefts. In this systematic review, we analyzed reports of Tessier clefts accompanied by cardiovascular anomalies, as one of the commonly encountered anomalies. We systematically searched PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. We selected and included case reports, case series, and case reviews on patients with Tessier cleft and cardiovascular anomalies. The critical appraisal of the included studies was performed by two independent investigators using the Consensus-based Clinical Case Reporting Guideline Development (CARE) checklist. Overall, 20 reports (18 case reports and 2 case series) were eligible for inclusion in this review. Tessier clefts 3 and 30 were the most commonly observed. In addition, the most prevalent cardiovascular anomalies consisted of the ventricular septal defect (VSD), double-outlet right ventricle, and atrial septal defect (ASD). Most of the patients received cosmetic and cardiovascular surgeries. However, some were not proper candidates for cardiovascular surgery because of their unstable condition and therefore did not survive.   Conclusion: Regardless of the focus placed on the cleft and subsequent plastic surgery procedures in these cases, it is important to prioritize other abnormalities that may be associated with mortality. A complete cardiovascular system and associated disorders assessment should be performed before facial cosmetic surgeries. What is Known: • Tessier clefts are congenital defects in the soft tissues and bones of the face and like many other congenital defects, they are accompanied by defects in other parts of the body. • In the current literature, the emphasis is on clefts and the cosmetic issues rather than the coinciding defects, particularly cardiovascular anomalies. What is New: • Review the cardiovascular anomalies that are commonly encountered in patients with Tessier clefts.
