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

An extra-cardiac anomaly known as coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is characterized by intraluminal constriction that impedes forward blood flow. The most typical location is close to the ductus arteriosus, immediately distal to the left subclavian artery. Blood flow obstruction is typically caused by a "shelf-like" tissue that protrudes from the posterior aortic wall into the aortic lumen. Long-segment juxtaductal CoA with cardiac dysfunction is a surgical priority. End-to-end anastomosis of long-segment juxtaductal CoA leads to a considerable gradient across the segment even after extensive mobilization. Addition of a subclavian flap along with the end-to-end anastomosis of the posterior layer of the aorta is an achievable, physiologic, and feasible procedure.
