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

backgroundWhile long-term survival for tetralogy of Fallot continues to improve, residual hemodynamic abnormalities are common and increase risk for cardiovascular events during pregnancy. CASE SUMMARY: A young woman with tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia (TOF/PA) having undergone biventricular repair presented with heart failure symptoms and near-systemic right ventricular (RV) pressure in the setting of an unplanned pregnancy. Given her desire to continue the pregnancy coupled with the significant maternal and neonatal risk, percutaneous intervention was performed, improving RV pressure and facilitating the eventual delivery of a healthy term child. DISCUSSION: Though high-risk, percutaneous intervention during pregnancy for complex RV outflow tract/pulmonary artery lesions can be performed safely and effectively. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: This case highlights successful percutaneous RV outflow tract/pulmonary artery intervention during pregnancy in a patient with TOF/PA. Multidisciplinary care including adult congenital heart disease, maternal fetal medicine, and cardiac anesthesiology for the pregnant patient with complex congenital heart disease is essential.
