Toward "S"-Shaped 3D-Printed Soft Robotic Guidewires for Pediatric Patent Ductus Arteriosus Endovascular Interventions.

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
Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) is a heart condition in which the ductus arteriosus-a blood vessel connecting the pulmonary artery to the aorta in a fetus-fails to undergo closure after birth. A PDA can be an important factor in neonates born with severe congenital heart disease (CHD) or born prematurely. With the advent of new intravascular stent technologies, treatments based on ductus arteriosus stenting can now be completed in many cases; however, difficulties remain in accessing the ductus arteriosus in small babies successfully using current guidewire-catheter systems. Recent developments for soft robotic endovascular instruments that leverage control schemes hold distinctive potential for addressing these access challenges, but such technologies are not yet at the sizes required for navigating neonatal vasculature safely and efficiently. In an effort to meet this clinical need, this work presents an approach for 3D printing 1.5 French (Fr) soft robotic guidewires that transition from straight to "S"-shaped configurations under the application of fluidic (
