Postoperative Morbidity and Interstage Hemodynamics Following Stage I Palliation in Patients with Turner Syndrome and Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.
Review in Pediatric cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTurner syndrome (TS) is associated with left-sided cardiac lesions, including hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Mortality as high as 80-90% has been reported following stage I single-ventricle palliation (S1P) in patients with TS and HLHS (TS + HLHS). The specific factors that relate to poor outcomes are not well understood.
methodsThis is a single-center, retrospective cohort study that includes 197 patients with HLHS who underwent S1P between 2008 and 2022. The clinical outcomes and interstage hemodynamics of TS + HLHS patients (N = 11) were compared with HLHS without TS (TS-HLHS), (N = 186).
resultsOf the 11 TS + HLHS patients, 10 underwent S1P; 4 underwent Glenn and 1 had hemodynamics considered prohibitive for Glenn; only 1 survived to Fontan palliation. Post-S1P mortality was higher in TS + HLHS (60 v 25%, p = 0.017). Following S1P, TS + HLHS had higher rates of postoperative ECMO (70 v 28%, p = 0.006), surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (20 v 3%, p = 0.007), peritoneal drain placement (70 v 31%, p = 0.012), urinary tract infection (30 v 9%, p = 0.035), and ICU readmissions (median 5 v 1, p = 0.035). Interstage hemodynamics demonstrated higher right ventricular end diastolic, (11 v 8mmHg, p = 0.033), mean pulmonary artery (20 v 13mmHg) (p = 0.002), and left atrial pressures (9 v 6mmHg, p = 0.047) in TS + HLHS.
conclusionHigh mortality rates are described in TS + HLHS patients following S1P. In our cohort, despite most surviving more than 30 days post-S1P, long-term survival remained poor. Interstage catheterization data suggest poor physiologic candidacy for subsequent stages of single-ventricle palliation. Understanding the clinical and hemodynamic factors related to poor outcomes in TS + HLHS will help inform management for this population.
