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
Background: Many US children have congenital heart defects (CHD), yet data on their long-term outcomes have limitations. The Congenital Heart Survey To Recognize Outcomes, Needs, and well-beinG of KIDS (CHSTRONG KIDS) addresses these gaps by surveying caregivers of children with CHD identified through birth defect surveillance systems [BDSS]. Objectives: To describe the CHSTRONG KIDS project design, characteristics of the eligible population, and the percentage not up-to-date on recommended cardiology care. Methods: Children born 2006-2021 with CHD were identified using active, population-based BDSS in Atlanta, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Minnesota and linked to vital records. Caregivers of eligible (living) children with CHD were invited to complete surveys in 2024-2025. Characteristics were compared by site and response status using χ Results: Among 7239 identified children with CHD, 6240 were eligible for survey recruitment. Of those,1841 (30%) had caregiver-reported survey data. Several characteristics, including CHD severity, birth year, and Trisomy 21 diagnosis, varied by site ( Conclusion: With data on >7200 CHD cases and >1800 caregiver-reported surveys, CHSTRONG KIDS provides a population-based view of long-term outcomes among children with CHD. Notably, one in five were not up-to-date on their cardiology care and therefore may not be represented in clinical cohorts.
