Nikaidoh Procedure for Double Outlet Right Ventricle With Transposition of the Great Arteries and Superior-Inferior Ventricles.
Article in Annals of thoracic surgery short reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a rare case of double outlet right ventricle with transposition of the great arteries, subpulmonary ventricular septal defect, pulmonary valve stenosis, and superior-inferior ventricles successfully managed by the Nikaidoh procedure. Preoperative 3-dimensional simulation clarified the complex spatial anatomy and confirmed feasibility without inflow compromise. Surgical results mirrored the simulation, with smooth recovery and excellent 4-year outcome. The Nikaidoh procedure is feasible in cases with superior-inferior ventricular arrangement and pulmonary stenosis, and 3-dimensional simulation can facilitate precise surgical planning, potentially improving outcomes in similarly complex congenital heart defects.
