Percutaneous Retrieval of a Vegetation in a Pediatric Patient with Patent Ductus Arteriosus: A New Technique to Avoid Thoracotomy.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Infective endocarditis in the pediatric population is a rare condition that may or may not be associated with a congenital heart disease. Current treatment modalities are based on long-term antibiotic therapy and surgical resection as the first option for cases of persistent vegetation. We present a case of successful percutaneous retrieval of a vegetation in a patent ductus arteriosus, that extended to the pulmonary artery trunk in a pediatric patient. This is the first report in the literature on this type of extraction of vegetation in the ductus arteriosus without thoracotomy.
