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 atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) and right ventricular-dependent coronary circulation pose management challenges requiring creative transcatheter solutions when surgery is unfeasible. CASE SUMMARY: A small-for-gestational-age term neonate with PA/IVS and right ventricular-dependent coronary circulation developed hemodynamic instability after patent ductus arteriosus stenting, requiring deployment of a modified Medtronic Microvascular Plug within the patent ductus arteriosus stent to restrict pulmonary overcirculation. A left external iliac artery pseudoaneurysm was subsequently closed using a 4-mm Konar-A vascular plug.

conclusionsThis case underscores the delicate balance between management of pulmonary over- and undercirculation in neonates with PA/IVS and highlights creative transcatheter strategies used to address these dual hemodynamic dilemmas. Early recognition of at-risk anatomy, and consideration for cardiac transplantation, are essential for survival in these high-risk patients. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Unconventional transcatheter strategies may be essential in managing high-risk neonates with congenital heart disease.
