The landscape of management and outcome of children with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: a single-center experience.

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.
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
Objective: To compare the outcomes in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) who were offered different surgical management strategies. Design and settings: We retrospectively included all patients from our center diagnosed with ccTGA between 2000 and 2021. The cohort was divided into four groups: (1) patients with systemic right ventricle; (2) patients with anatomic repair (in the form of an atrial and arterial switch or an atrial switch and Rastelli operation); (3) patients with a one-and-a-half ventricle repair (hemi-Mustard type) and bidirectional cavopulmonary connection and placement of a right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit; and (4) patients with a single ventricle who were not suitable for biventricular repair. Results: The study included 42 patients with ccTGA. In 39 patients (93%), ccTGA was associated with other congenital heart defects. Group 1 (systemic right ventricle) comprised 16 patients (38%); seven of them underwent pulmonary artery banding, with a reduction in tricuspid valve regurgitation seen in four patients. Group 2 (anatomic group) and Group 3 (one-and-a-half ventricle group) each had three patients (7%). Group 4 (single-ventricle palliation) consisted of 17 patients (40%); 15 of them (88%) completed total cavopulmonary connection. Three early mortalities (7%) were recorded. Conclusions: Patients who underwent anatomical repair (Rastelli-type) or a one-and-a-half ventricle repair (hemi-Mustard type) showed a good outcome with satisfactory biventricular function. Moreover, single-ventricle palliation showed excellent mid-term results in patients with ccTGA. PA banding may reduce tricuspid regurgitation in patients with ccTGA. A follow-up of our managed patients by an individualized plan demonstrated satisfactory outcomes.
