Congenital Heart Disease After Mid-Age: From the "Grown-Up" to the Elderly.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Early surgery and improved medical care have led to the increased survival of neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD), who now commonly reach adulthood. Among adults with CHD, a growing subgroup is represented by middle-aged and even elderly patients. In this elderly population, acquired cardiac and extracardiac comorbidities represent the main cause of morbidity and mortality; the control and correction of cardiovascular risk factors or an appropriate check for extracardiac complications (such as malignancies) is therefore of paramount importance. Complications and frailty syndrome appear to occur earlier in ACHD than in the general population due to a frequent discrepancy between chronological and biological age. Multiple stressors throughout life (hemodynamic abnormalities, cardiac operations and interventional procedures, the placement of foreign materials) that result in a chronic inflammatory response are among the leading causes of premature senescence. This review is aimed at assessing the characteristics and special needs of this elderly ACHD population with a view to proposing novel models for the organization of extended care.
