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

The phenomenon of double interatrial septum (DIAS) represents a particularly rare subtype of atrial septal malformation, characterized by the presence of dual membranes separating the atria, resulting in a distinctive interatrial space. This unique anatomical structure has been linked to a paradoxical right-to-left shunt, potentially contributing to embolic ischemic strokes. Within this context, we report a rare case of a 34-year-old female who presented with a transient ischemic attack (TIA) and was diagnosed with patent foramen ovale (PFO) and a small adjacent atrial septal defect (ASD), along with the presence of a DIAS. The diagnosis was confirmed wit transoesophageal echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and the condition was successfully treated with a transcatheter occluder device.
