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

A 4-month-old, British Shorthair kitten was referred to our institute for evaluation of a heart murmur. Thoracic radiography and echocardiography revealed narrowing of the right pulmonary artery, accompanied by right atrial dilation and right ventricular hypertrophy. The systolic flow velocity across the stenotic lesion was 6.15 m/sec, with a pressure gradient of 151.42 mmHg. Computed tomography confirmed right pulmonary coarctation with concurrent interruption of the left pulmonary artery. Balloon angioplasty was performed, reducing the systolic flow velocity from 6.15 m/sec to 2.79 m/sec and relieving right ventricular pressure overload. One year later, thoracic radiography revealed left lung collapse and right lung hyperinflation; however, the patient remained asymptomatic. At 33 months post-diagnosis, the patient continued to thrive without any clinical signs.
