Surgical Patching in Congenital Heart Disease: The Role of Imaging and Modelling.
Review in Life (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
In congenital heart disease, patches are not tailored to patient-specific anatomies, leading to shape mismatch with likely functional implications. The design of patches through imaging and modelling may be beneficial, as it could improve clinical outcomes and reduce the costs associated with redo procedures. Whilst attention has been paid to the material of the patches used in congenital surgery, this review outlines the current knowledge on this subject and isolated experimental work that uses modelling and imaging-derived information (including 3D printing) to inform the design of the surgical patch.
