A Delayed Presentation of a Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sinus venosus atrial septal defects (ASDs) are rare congenital anomalies that result from an abnormality of the junction between the right atrium, superior vena cava (SVC), and pulmonary veins. This defect causes right-to-left shunting, which can lead to progressive right heart enlargement. We present a case of a 59-year-old man with a history of hypertension and hyperlipidemia who presented with dyspnea and newly diagnosed atrial flutter. Transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, and CT imaging revealed a sinus venosus ASD with multiple anomalous pulmonary venous returns. The patient underwent successful surgical repair of the defect, which included ASD closure, augmentation of the SVC, and redirection of the anomalous pulmonary veins into the left atrium. This case underscores the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for congenital defects such as sinus venosus ASDs, even in adults, and the role of advanced imaging and timely surgical repair in these patients.
