Management of collaterals after Glenn procedure and its impact on patients with a single ventricle: a single-center study.

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
Introduction and objectives: The bidirectional Glenn shunt (BDG) is an essential step in the repair of a physiologically single-ventricle heart. BDG increases pulmonary blood flow, allows growth of the pulmonary arteries, and improves SaO Methods: We included 56 patients who underwent BDG procedures at a median age of 2.08 (1-3) years. After BDG, peripheral pulmonary stenting was used in 2 patients. Symptomatic hyperviscosity was present in 10 patients (17.86%), who underwent venesection. BDG was unsuccessful in 2 patients. Venovenous collaterals were observed in 41 patients (73.2%), and aortopulmonary collaterals in 37 (66.1%). Results: Hematocrit levels were significantly higher in patients with venovenous collaterals (50.00 ± 8.76) than in those without ( Conclusions: TCC of collaterals is a technically demanding but effective management strategy following BDG to improve patients' SaO
