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

Ventricular septal defects (VSDs), the most common of congenital heart defects, vary widely in anatomy and size. Surgical treatment of very large VSDs can be challenging because no clear recommendations exist about which defects can undergo biventricular repair with septation and which should instead be palliated. Although Fontan circulation is known to be associated with long-term morbidity, information is limited about how ventricular septation of large VSDs affects cardiac function. This case series describes the successful ventricular septation of 3 patients with large VSDs and the lessons we learned in treating them.
