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

Background: Thrombosis of ductus arteriosus aneurysm (DAA) is a well-known complication of DAA that can lead to vascular obstruction or thromboembolic events. Case report: A full-term male newborn presented with isolated right ventricular hypoplasia (IRVH). Follow-up echocardiography at 19 days of life revealed a pedunculated mass, suggesting a thrombus partially obstructing the left pulmonary artery (LPA). The patient remained clinically stable but was admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit for close monitoring. CT and MRI confirmed DAA thrombosis involving LPA. Due to a lack of resolution with conservative treatment, the patient underwent a thrombectomy and resection of the ductus arteriosus (DA). The postoperative course was uneventful, and the follow-up echocardiography showed normalisation of the right ventricular cavity and no residual thrombus. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of early detection and investigation in neonates with echocardiographic findings of intrauterine ductus arteriosus closure, stenosis, or DA closure in the first 12 h of life to prevent life-threatening complications.
