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

Unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect with hypoplastic right ventricle in infants with trisomy 21 poses significant challenges as they are not ideal candidates for single-ventricle palliation. We describe a patient with the diagnoses who underwent a biventricular repair but subsequently required a Blalock-Thomas-Taussig shunt (BTTS) with enlargement of atrial communication because of severe right-sided heart failure and low cardiac output. Staged device embolization of the BTTS and atrial communication were achieved by 7 years of age. This demonstrated that employing the BTTS with a relatively large atrial defect allowed phenomenal right ventricular growth.
