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

Dr. Krishna Manohar Soman Rema (SR) (1956-2022) was a pioneering congenital cardiac surgeon and an inspiring educator who dedicated his life to advancing pediatric cardiac care and mentoring the next generation of surgeons. Trained in cardiac surgery at the Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology in Kerala, he served as faculty there for 20 years, contributing significantly to the development of the Chitra Heart Valve. His career also included tenures at the Madras Medical Mission, Frontier Lifeline Hospital, and the Sri Sathya Sai Hospital in Whitefield, Bengaluru. Dr. Krishna Manohar's most enduring contribution was his role in establishing cardiac surgical services at the Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani International Centre for Child Heart Care and Research in Palwal, Haryana, part of a network of hospitals offering free congenital heart surgery to underprivileged children. Under his leadership, these centers performed over 22,000 open-heart and interventional procedures over a decade, achieving excellent outcomes. An exceptional mentor, Dr. Krishna Manohar introduced a transformative
