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

A 9-day-old male neonate was found to have a systolic murmur during a routine follow-up for skin jaundice. Imaging revealed a large mass at the bifurcation of the main pulmonary artery, causing significant bilateral stenosis. The patient underwent emergency surgery due to critically compromised pulmonary blood flow. Intraoperative exploration demonstrated a large ductus arteriosus aneurysm (DAA) with extensive thrombosis. The DAA was completely resected under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, followed by reconstruction of the descending aorta and repair of the pulmonary artery bifurcation defect. The patient was discharged on the 20th postoperative day and remained asymptomatic at the 3-month follow-up, exhibiting normal growth and cardiac function.
