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

aimThis study was designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cocoon Septal Occluder device (Vascular Innovations Co. Nonthaburi, Thailand) for transcatheter closure of isolated secundum type atrial septal defect (ASD) in Indian patients.

methodsThis was a single-center, retrospective, observational study which included patients who underwent transcatheter closure of isolated secundum ASD using the Cocoon Septal Occluder between April 2014 and May 2023. Follow-up assessments up to one-year were conducted through review of hospital medical records, clinic visits, or via telephonic communication with primary care physicians.

resultsA total of 400 patients were included in the study, consisting of 28 paediatric (aged ≤15 years, 8.14 ± 4.41 years) and 372 adult patients (40.83 ± 13.23 years). The mean defect diameter and device size were 16.75 ± 5.85 mm and 20.43 ± 6.24 mm for paediatric patients, and 21.62 ± 6.87 mm and 24.94 ± 7.28 mm for adult patients, respectively. The device was successfully implanted in all paediatric patients, achieving 100 % closure of the defect with no complications, which persisted through one-year follow-up. In the adult cohort, complete ASD closure was achieved in 99.2 % of patients, with two cases of device embolization and one case of device withdrawal. At one-year follow-up, adult patients experienced 0.3 % late device embolization, 0.8 % pericardial effusion/cardiac tamponade, 0.5 % atrioventricular block, and 0.5 % atrial flutter/fibrillation. No cases of endocarditis, haemolysis, nickel allergy, stroke/transient ischemic attack, or migraine were reported in either paediatric or adult patients.

conclusionThe results demonstrate that Cocoon Septal Occluder is safe and effective in closing isolated secundum ASD during one-year follow-up.
