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

Isomerism of the right atrial appendages is a rare congenital disorder marked by abnormal lateralization of the thoracoabdominal organs, often associated with complex cardiac malformations and asplenia. We report a neonate with discordant ventriculo-arterial connections, an anterior and right-sided aorta, total anomalous pulmonary venous return, and bilateral eparterial bronchi, identified using cardiac computed tomography with three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction. The patient underwent staged surgical interventions including a Blalock-Taussig shunt and Glenn procedure. Postoperative complications included gastroesophageal reflux and respiratory distress requiring multidisciplinary care. While not intended to guide generalized management, this case illustrates the utility of multimodality imaging and surgical planning in addressing the complex anatomy associated with isomerism of the right atrial appendages.
