Classification of Fetal Congenital Heart Disease by Prenatal Ultrasound and Its Diagnostic Value.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: To evaluate diagnostic value of prenatal ultrasound in classifying fetal congenital heart disease (CHD) and to verify its diagnostic accuracy by comparing its results with postnatal pathological findings. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 372 pregnant women with fetal CHD, detected by ultrasound, who underwent interventional prenatal diagnosis. Prenatal CHD cases were classified at three levels. Pathological and anatomical examinations of CHD fetuses were performed in 305 pregnant women who terminated pregnancies; results were compared to those of prenatal ultrasonography. Results: At first classification level, complex type accounted for 37.6% (140/372), predominated by double outlet right ventricle (DORV); severe 36.6% (136/372), represented by tetralogy of Fallot (TOF); and simple 25.8% (96/372), commonly ventricular septal defect (VSD). At second classification level, incidence of isolated was higher than that of syndromic [55.9% (212/372) vs 42.2% (160/372), Conclusion: Three-level classification method enables a comprehensive analysis of prenatal diagnosis and prognosis for fetal CHD, facilitating timely decision-making in clinical settings. Prenatal ultrasound plays an essential role in CHD diagnosis, facilitating implementation of clinical interventions tailored at halting this menace.
