Right ventricular diverticulum following a pulmonary valve placement for correction of tetralogy of Fallot: A case report.
Article in World journal of cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundVentricular diverticula are a rare congenital cardiac disorder presenting with an extremely low incidence. The presence of an apical diverticulum of the right ventricle has been associated with other congenital heart diseases such as tetralogy of Fallot. An important defining characteristic of ventricular diverticula that separates them from aneurysms through imaging techniques, is that they possess myocardial contraction synchronous to the adjacent walls, contributing to the ventricular stroke volume, so they do not usually require surgical treatment. CASE SUMMARY: A 15-year-old male, currently asymptomatic, in follow up due to a pulmonary valve prosthesis placement and a history of corrected tetralogy of Fallot at 18 months old, underwent a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in February 2024. A diverticulum was detected in the apical inferolateral wall of the right ventricle, which was not documented in the cardiac magnetic resonance imaging prior to valve prosthesis placement.
conclusionRight ventricular diverticula are a rare entity. To this date we could not find another case of a pulmonary valve placement, followed by a right ventricular diverticulum appearance.
