Behaviour Concerns in Preschool Cardiac Surgery Survivors.
Article in CJC pediatric and congenital heart disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Behaviour concerns (BC) are reported in survivors of complex cardiac surgery (CCSx) with inconsistent evidence about health and demographic variables that impact outcomes. Methods: A prospective inception-cohort study of infants (without known chromosomal abnormalities) after CCSx from 2001 to 2017 determined Behaviour Assessment System for Children (BASC-II/III) parent rating scales at 4.5 years. Results: Survivors (n = 585; 61% boys, 40% single ventricle) were assessed at a median age of 55 months (interquartile range: 53, 57 months). Independent predictors were noncardiac hospitalizations (OR: 1.10, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.19; Conclusions: The number of noncardiac hospitalizations predicted increased odds of BC and requires further attention. Improving inpatient trauma-informed care experiences and optimizing access to primary care to prevent noncardiac hospitalization may be modifiable.
