Immediate Hemodynamic Effects of Pulmonary Artery Flow Restrictors in Univentricular Circulation: Hypothesis-Generating Insights from High-Fidelity Physiologic Streaming Data Using Machine-Learning.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 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
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome has been historically palliated with the surgical Norwood or hybrid procedures. Transcatheter placement of pulmonary flow restrictors (PFR) with prostaglandin to maintain an unobstructed ductus arteriosus has emerged as an option for single-ventricle patients that are poor surgical candidates. High-fidelity physiologic data has been used to predict outcomes in interstage patients. This study aimed to characterize the acute hemodynamic effects of transcatheter flow restrictors on pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio using physiologic data. A single-center retrospective review of 10 patients who underwent transcatheter flow restrictor placement was performed. High-fidelity physiologic data (1-second resolution) from before, during, and after flow restrictor placement were utilized. Data were aggregated with the Sickbay Clinical Platform. An autoregressive integrated moving average model was used to compare variables of interest before, during, and after flow restrictor placement. A total of 10 patients were included in the study for a total of 123,509 patient seconds of monitoring. A statistically significant decrease in pulmonary-to-systemic blood flow ratio, systemic saturation, and renal oxygen extraction, and an increase in blood pressure, were observed during and after PFR placement. Flow restrictor placement is associated with an acute decrease in calculated pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio and an increase in calculated renal oxygen extraction ratio (related to an increase in systemic oxygen delivery). More importantly, this study demonstrates that high-fidelity physiologic data platforms can be used for real-time assessment of the effect of pulmonary artery flow reducers. Eventually, clinical decision algorithms may be able to guide the pulmonary artery flow reducer strategy, both intra-procedurally and afterward.
