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

Critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) represents a challenging problem in global health equity due to the need for specialized surgical or transcatheter intervention within the first year of life. CCHD screening using pulse oximetry (POS) has led to significant improvements in mortality due to early referral and intervention. Andean America represents one of the few regions in the world with increasing CHD deaths and variable POS implementation. In this manuscript, we review the current state of CCHD in Andean America, the challenges and opportunities for developing new POS algorithms that account for high-altitude physiology, data on regional cost-effectiveness supporting POS implementation and outline future directions to achieve equity in CHD care in this region.
