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

Background: Technical success (TS) and procedural safety (PS) have been reported individually for transcatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closures. A composite procedural performance (PP) metric as a patient-centered strategy has not been developed or studied. Methods: A multicenter expert working group created PP metrics for ASD and PDA device closures as a composite of TS and PS. TS criteria were defined and categorized into 3 classes (optimal, satisfactory, and unsatisfactory). PS was defined using established adverse event (AE) definitions from the Congenital Cardiac Catheterization Project on Outcomes (C3PO) registry. PP was divided into 3 outcome classes (I to III). Retrospective C3PO data were collected for all cases of isolated ASD and PDA closure from 2014 through 2017. Exclusion criteria included complex congenital heart disease, significant comorbidities, ASD patients with multiple defects or ≥2 deficient rims, and PDA patients weighing <6 kg or with pulmonary hypertension. Factors correlating with class III (suboptimal) PP were analyzed. Results: A total of 542 ASD and 688 PDA closure cases were included. Most ASD cases (99%) had optimal or satisfactory TS while 1% had a high severity AE. Class III PP occurred in 2% of ASD cases, mostly due to new mitral valve insufficiency. There were no identified patient or procedural factors associated with class III PP for ASD closures. Optimal or satisfactory TS occurred in 98% of PDA cases, with high severity AEs in <1%. Class III PP occurred in 2% of PDA cases, predominantly due to new arch obstruction, and was associated with younger age ( Conclusions: This study introduces PP as a composite variable to comprehensively measure outcomes of standard-risk ASD and PDA device closure. The incorporation of both TS and PS aims to better reflect patient outcomes compared to individual measurements alone. PP may serve as a valuable tool for identifying areas for further investigation and quality improvement.
