Combined Use of a Modified Microvascular Plug Flow Restrictor and Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Stenting.

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
backgroundThe balance of pulmonary and systemic blood flow is the fundamental paradigm that influences decision-making in cardiovascular shunt physiology. CASE SUMMARY: This case discusses a term neonate with a prenatal diagnosis of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and tetralogy of Fallot with near pulmonary atresia, a confluent but severely hypoplastic main pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery, an isolated left pulmonary artery from the aorta, and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries. Before surgical intervention, a right ventricular outflow tract stent was placed along with a modified microvascular plug (mMVP; Medtronic) to restrict flow in the left pulmonary artery. DISCUSSION: Recently, there have been case reports using an mMVP as a pulmonary flow restrictor. This innovative technique has shown promise in modulating pulmonary blood flow for patients awaiting surgical interventions or for whom surgery presents significant risks. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: In patients with excess pulmonary blood flow, use of an mMVP to restrict flow can be a viable bridge to surgical intervention.
