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

Anomalous mitral arcade (MA) is a rare congenital anomaly. We report a case of MA in a newborn who presented with hydrops fetalis due to severe mitral regurgitation. After birth, he developed severe respiratory failure, congestive heart failure and airway obstruction because an enlarged left atrium from severe mitral regurgitation compressed the distal left main bronchus. There is limited experience in surgical management of this condition in Thailand, and the patient's mitral valve was too small for replacement. Therefore, he was treated with medication to control heart failure and supported with positive pressure ventilation to promote growth. We have followed the patient until the current time of writing this report at the age of 2 years, and his outcome is favourable regarding heart failure symptoms, airway obstruction, growth and development. This case describes a challenging experience in the non-surgical management of MA with severe regurgitation, which presented at birth.
