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

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is the most common cardiac abnormality in premature neonates, and percutaneous, transcatheter occlusion devices are increasingly used for its nonsurgical closure. Even though PDA occluders are safe and effective, they are not without risks. Infective endocarditis (IE), a complication associated with percutaneous occlusion device placement in other congenital heart conditions, has not been described with a PDA occluder. We describe a case of suspected endocarditis in an extremely low birth weight (ELBW) neonate after PDA occluder placement.
