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

objectivesThere is limited information on long-term outcomes and trajectories of ventricular and valvular functions in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries after anatomic repair according to the operative strategy with a median follow-up period of more than 10 years.

methodsTwenty-nine patients who underwent anatomic repair in Okayama University Hospital between January 1994 and December 2020 were reviewed. Outcomes were compared between patients who underwent a double switch operation (DS group) and patients with an atrial switch with a Rastelli operation (Rastelli-Senning/Mustard group).

resultsFifteen (52%) were in the DS group and 14 (48%) were in the Rastelli-Senning/Mustard group. The median follow-up period after anatomic repair was 12.7 (interquartile range 4.2-18.8) years. There were 3 (10%) early deaths and 3 (10%) late deaths. Survival rates for the entire cohort at 10 and 20 years were 86% and 71%, respectively, and were not different between the 2 groups. Using competing risk analysis, risks of heart failure, cardiac rhythm device implantation and atrial arrhythmia showed no significant differences between the 2 groups, whereas risk of reoperation was higher in the Rastelli-Senning/Mustard group than that in the DS group. Four patients after a DS operation and 1 patient after a Rastelli technique developed more than moderate aortic regurgitation.

conclusionsDuring a median follow-up period of more than 10 years, mortality rate and ventricular and valvular functions after anatomic repair were acceptable, though the incidences of late complications were relatively high, especially in the Rastelli-Senning/Mustard group.
