Relationship of Aortopulmonary Collaterals and Pulmonary Artery Development During Staged Single Ventricle Reconstruction.

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
To evaluate the relationship of aortopulmonary collaterals and the development of central pulmonary arteries during staged palliation. A total of 287 patients, who underwent staged palliation with bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt and total cavopulmonary connection between 2008 and 2019, had available angiography. Pulmonary artery index was calculated using pulmonary angiography as described by Nakata and colleagues. Aortopulmonary collaterals were observed in 47 (16%) patients at stage II palliation, in 131 (46%) at total cavopulmonary connection, and afterwards in 49 (7%). The interventional closure of aortopulmonary collaterals was performed before stage II in 12 (4%) patients, before Fontan completion in 38 (13%), and afterwards in 39 (14%). Presence of aortopulmonary collaterals before stage II was not associated with the pulmonary artery index (129 vs. 150 mm
