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

Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is a rare congenital heart disease in which one or more pulmonary veins drain into the systemic venous circulation. The abnormal connection between the pulmonary vein and the right atrium can result in a right-sided volume overload due to a left-to-right shunt, followed by eventual right-sided pressure overload and right ventricular failure. PAPVC is usually associated with an atrial septal defect but can present as an isolated finding. We present a case of isolated PAPVC resulting in right heart failure and predominantly pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension. We discuss the challenges in the diagnosis and medical management of isolated PAPVC and highlight the clinical and hemodynamic indications for pulmonary vasodilators and diuretics.
