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: The bidirectional cavopulmonary connection (BCPC) is a pivotal stage in the surgical palliation of single-ventricle patients. However, there is ongoing debate regarding the benefits and drawbacks of BCPC with additional or antegrade pulmonary blood flow (AAPBF) in optimizing the subsequent stage-total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC). Objective: To determine the influence of BCPC with AAPBF on pulmonary artery growth and hemodynamic outcomes. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of 167 single-ventricle patients who underwent BCPC at Siriraj Hospital between 2006 and 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on AAPBF status: group 1 (with AAPBF, Results: Median ages at pre-BCPC assessment were 1.06 years (group 1) and 2.17 years (group 2), and at pre-TCPC assessment were 6.19 and 7.27 years, respectively. Median age at BCPC operation was similar between groups (1.58 Conclusions: BCPC with AAPBF effectively promotes pulmonary artery growth without adversely affecting ventricular volume loading or pulmonary artery pressure. Further investigation into the development of arteriovenous malformations is recommended.
