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

Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of anticoagulation strategy, stent type, and pulmonary artery (PA) jailing on unplanned reintervention rates and PA growth in neonates undergoing patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) stenting. Specifically, we compared aspirin monotherapy versus aspirin plus Enoxaparin, bare metal versus drug-eluting stents, and jailed versus non-jailed PAs. Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on neonates who underwent PDA stenting between 2014 and 2024. Patients were categorized by stent type, anticoagulation regimen, and PA jailing status. Unplanned reintervention rates were assessed using chi-square analysis and logistic regression. PA growth was evaluated using catheterization, MRI, and CT imaging. Statistical analyses of PA growth included t-tests and regression models. Results: Among 116 neonates analyzed, aspirin monotherapy was associated with a significantly lower unplanned reintervention rate compared to combination therapy with Enoxaparin ( Conclusions: For neonatal PDA stenting, aspirin monotherapy may be as effective as aspirin plus Enoxaparin for post-stenting anticoagulation, and drug eluting stents may not have a significant benefit over bare metal stents. Furthermore, PA jailing may negatively impact distal vessel growth, highlighting the need for refined stent placement techniques, although further prospective studies are needed to optimize procedural strategies and long-term outcomes in this high-risk neonatal population.
