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: Criss-cross heart (CCH) is considered as one of the most complex, challenging, and exceptionally rare congenital heart diseases (CHDs). Criss-cross heart is defined by the twisted atrioventricular connection and the crossing of inflow streams to both ventricles, caused by the rotation of the ventricular mass along its longitudinal axis. The treatment depends on the anatomical complexity. Diagnosis of CCH is difficult, and interpretation of imaging results may be challenging. Case summary: A one-year-old girl presented with cyanosis and abnormal heart sounds. We report a patient with complex congenital CCH who underwent successful biventricular repair using multimodality cardiac imaging, including echocardiography, cardiac computerized tomography, 3D printing, and 4D flow-CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance). Discussion: Criss-cross heart is one of the most complex and rare CHD. Multimodality cardiac imaging is essential for finding the answers and providing better care for complex CHD patients.
