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

An aortopulmonary septal defect or aortopulmonary window (APW) is a rare cardiovascular anomaly with direct communication between the ascending aorta and the main pulmonary artery leading to a left-to-right shunt. It is accompanied by other cardiovascular anomalies in approximately half of patients. In order to avoid irreversible sequelae, interventional or surgical treatment should be performed as soon as possible. Cardiovascular CT, as a fast, non-invasive technique with excellent spatial resolution, has an increasing role in the evaluation of patients with APW, enabling precise and detailed planning of surgical treatment of APW and associated anomalies if present. This article aims to review the anatomical and clinical features of aortopulmonary septal defect with special emphasis on its detection and characterization by a CT examination.
