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

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) continues to be a significant finding among infants, as well as adults. What is widely considered to be a problem though, in a group of patients with congenital heart disease, it is the only lifeline. We will initially study the anatomical and biochemical mechanisms affecting the PDA. The main focus of this review is on ductal-dependent congenital heart disease and biochemical and pharmacological approaches to maintaining ductus arteriosus patency, as well as surgical and interventional options for maintaining circulation. The present review aims to highlight gaps in the knowledge regarding the multifunctional role of ductus arteriosus endothelium and possibly propose a new approach to pharmacological maintenance of ductus arteriosus patency.
