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

backgroundRight ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) dysfunction is a long-term postsurgical complication of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) that needs long-term multidisciplinary treatment. CASE SUMMARY: We report a case of TOF patient who underwent radical surgical repair in infancy and who presented with pulmonary artery stenosis and pulmonary regurgitation during follow-up. Pulmonary stent placement and percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) were pursued successfully when he was aged 5 and 13 years, respectively. DISCUSSION: PPVI has been widely used as a minimally invasive treatment alternative to surgical pulmonary valve replacement. This technology has shown significant advantages in pediatric patients to improve RVOT dysfunction, relieve symptoms, optimize hemodynamic parameters, and avoid reintervention. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: This case provides a long-term and multidisciplinary strategy for TOF in pediatrics, with a focus on the possibility and effect of PPVI in adolescent patients.
