Atrioventricular Area Difference Aids Diastolic Filling in Patients with Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
A hydraulic force aids diastolic filling of the left ventricle (LV) and is proportional to the difference in short-axis area between the left ventricle and atrium; the atrioventricular area difference (AVAD). Patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rToF) and pulmonary regurgitation (PR) have reduced LV filling which could lead to a negative AVAD and a hydraulic force impeding diastolic filling. The aim was to assess AVAD and to determine whether the hydraulic force aids or impedes diastolic filling in patients with rToF and PR, compared to controls. Twelve children with rToF (11.5 [9-13] years), 12 pediatric controls (10.5 [9-13] years), 12 adults with rToF (21.5 [19-27] years) and 12 adult controls (24 [21-29] years) were retrospectively included. Cine short-axis images were acquired using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Atrioventricular area difference was calculated as the largest left ventricular short-axis area minus the largest left atrial short-axis area at beginning of diastole and end diastole and indexed to height (AVADi). Children and adults with rToF and PR had higher AVADi (0.3 cm
