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

Background: Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) stent placement and systemic-pulmonary surgical shunt procedure can both be performed as palliation for infants with duct-dependent pulmonary circulation. The aim of this meta-analysis and literature review was to compare outcomes and study populations between the 2 methods as well as review the technical considerations and complications of PDA stenting. Methods: A systematic search was conducted using the PubMed database and meta-analysis was performed. Risk ratio and mean difference were used to compare the reported outcomes of studies across patients receiving PDA stent and surgical shunt. Results: In total, 1094 patients from 8 comparative observational studies were included. The PDA stent group had a lower mortality rate and a shorter hospital length of stay than the systemic-pulmonary surgical shunt group, although at the expense of increased reintervention rates. There were higher proportions of patients with single-ventricle physiology and single-source pulmonary blood flow in the surgical shunt group. Conclusions: PDA stenting appears to be a noninferior or possibly superior method of palliation for duct-dependent pulmonary circulation compared with systemic-pulmonary surgical shunt, recognizing, however, that patients receiving surgical shunt more often had single-ventricle physiology or single-source pulmonary blood flow in this meta-analysis.
