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

backgroundPulmonary artery stenting is rarely reported in adults with distal and widespread congenital pulmonary artery stenoses or hypoplasia. CASE SUMMARY: A 35-year-old woman with diffuse distal congenital pulmonary artery hypoplasia and symptomatic right heart failure underwent pulmonary artery stenting, experiencing significant clinical improvement. A 62-year-old woman with widespread distal pulmonary artery stenoses underwent stenting owing to symptomatic nonsustained ventricular tachycardia and poor right ventricular contractile reserve. Her arrhythmia resolved and she experienced improvement of right ventricular contractile reserve. Both patients have an elastin gene mutation. DISCUSSION: There are limited reports of percutaneous intervention for adults with distal and widespread pulmonary artery stenoses or hypoplasia. We describe 2 successful cases of pulmonary artery stenting in this population. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Distal and widespread congenital pulmonary artery stenoses or hypoplasia can be treated with stenting when performed in well-selected patients by an experienced proceduralist in the right clinical setting.
