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

Noonan syndrome (NS) is a multisystem disorder with frequent heart defects, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Left ventricular (LV) apical aneurysm is an extremely rare presentation in pediatric HCM. A 4-year-old child with NS, PTPN-11 mutation and HCM presented with progressive mid-cavity LV obstruction leading to a large LV apical aneurysm. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed a large, wide-neck LV apical aneurysm. Surgery combined septal myectomy and patch repair of the aneurysm, resulting in uneventful recovery and significant gradient reduction. While multimodal imaging assists surgical planning, longitudinal surveillance should look for recurrences of aneurysm from the repaired segment, arrhythmia, and myocardial function.
