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

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair using a transannular patch (TAP) may lead to varying degrees of pulmonary insufficiency (PI) due to loss of pulmonary valve integrity. The subsequent right ventricle (RV) dilatation and dysfunction over time may directly or indirectly affect exercise capacity. Methods: Fifty-six patients who had undergone intracardiac repair of TOF between January 2010 and December 2015 were subjected to exercise stress testing. Twenty-six patients underwent TAP placement, and 30 patients did not. The modified BRUCE protocol was used on a standard cycle ergometer for exercise testing. The total duration of exercise, the heart rate achieved at the peak of exercise, the heart rate reserve, and the maximal oxygen consumption (VO Results: Patients with a TAP had significantly lower exercise capacity compared to those without TAP. Both the total duration of exercise, the heart rate achieved at the peak of exercise, the heart rate reserve, and the VO Conclusions: The non-TAP group had a better VO
