Neonatal Outcomes of Critical Congenital Heart Defects: A Multicenter Epidemiological Study of Turkish Neonatal Society : Neonatal Outcomes of CCHD.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 2024. 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
Critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) is one of the leading causes of neonatal and infant mortality. We aimed to elucidate the epidemiology, spectrum, and outcome of neonatal CCHD in Türkiye. This was a multicenter epidemiological study of neonates with CCHD conducted from October 2021 to November 2022 at national tertiary health centers. Data from 488 neonatal CCHD patients from nine centers were entered into the Trials-Network online registry system during the study period. Transposition of great arteria was the most common neonatal CHD, accounting for 19.5% of all cases. Sixty-three (12.9%) patients had extra-cardiac congenital anomalies. A total of 325 patients underwent cardiac surgery. Aortic arch repair (29.5%), arterial switch (25.5%), and modified Blalock-Taussig shunt (13.2%). Overall, in-hospital mortality was 20.1% with postoperative mortality of 19.6%. Multivariate analysis showed that the need of prostaglandin E1 before intervention, higher VIS (> 17.5), the presence of major postoperative complications, and the need for early postoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation were the main risk factors for mortality. The mortality rate of CCHD in our country remains high, although it varies by health center. Further research needs to be conducted to determine long-term outcomes for this vulnerable population.
