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

Lymphocytic fulminant myocarditis results in severe myocardial damage that is irreversible in some patients. In these patients, mechanical circulatory support, as the main treatment, is difficult. We describe a patient with a myocarditis-associated arrested heart who underwent successful left ventricular assist device implantation and extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection (EC-TCPC). EC-TCPC was chosen after fluid dynamics simulation was performed using computational fluid dynamics analysis of blood flow. In the analysis, EC-TCPC was compared with the Glenn procedure and the classic Fontan procedure; EC-TCPC had the best performance.
