Risk factors and outcomes for surgical repair of obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
Article in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Surgical repair of obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a high-risk surgical cohort. This study aimed to assess surgical risk factors and outcomes in infants with TAPVC treated at a single centre. Methods: This was a prospective single-centre, observational study that included consecutive patients presenting with obstructed TAPVC. Patients with obstructed supra-cardiac, cardiac, and infra-cardiac TAPVC were included in the study. In-hospital mortality was the primary outcome. Multivariable logistic regression was carried out to identify risk factors for in-hospital mortality. Results: Of the 41 patients, 31 (75.6%) were males. Ages were distributed as follows: 20 (48.8%) between 1 and 3 months, 11 (26.88%) between >3 months, and 10 (24.4%) neonates. The in-hospital mortality was 19.5% ( Conclusions: Despite logistical challenges, reasonable surgical outcomes are attainable in obstructed TAPVC cases. Age less than 30 days and need for pre-operative ventilation were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality, while pulmonary venous obstruction in the post-operative period contributed to re-interventions.
