Role of ECG in the Accidental Finding of an Atrioventricular Septal Defect in an Asymptomatic Patient Undergoing Cosmetic Surgery.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Electrocardiogram (ECG) is an important diagnostic tool in identifying congenital heart disease (CHD), as demonstrated by this case of a 48-year-old female who presented for a preoperative evaluation for cosmetic surgery. ECG showed a right bundle branch block (RBBB) and first-degree atrioventricular (AV) block, and further testing revealed a primum atrial septal defect (ASD) with mitral valve anterior leaflet cleft and a membranous ventricular septal defect (VSD). She underwent successful surgical repair and was discharged home without complications. This case highlights the importance of performing additional tests like echocardiography or other imaging modalities in cases of abnormal ECG findings to accurately diagnose the underlying heart condition and ensure proper treatment.
