Advances in Diagnostic and Interventional Catheterization in Adults with Fontan Circulation.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Over the past five decades, the Fontan procedure has been developed to improve the life expectancy of patients with congenital heart defects characterized by a functionally single ventricle. The Fontan circulation aims at redirecting systemic venous return to the pulmonary circulation in the absence of an impelling subpulmonary ventricle, which makes this physiology quite fragile and leads to several long-term complications. Despite the importance of hemodynamic assessment through cardiac catheterization in the management and follow-up of these patients, a thorough understanding of the ultimate functioning of this type of circulation is lacking, and the interpretation of the hemodynamic data is often complex. In recent years, new tools such as combined catheterization with cardiopulmonary exercise testing have been incorporated to improve the understanding of the hemodynamic profile of these patients. Furthermore, extensive percutaneous treatment options have been developed, addressing issues ranging from obstructive problems in Fontan pathway and acquired shunts through compensatory collaterals to the percutaneous treatment of lymphatic circulation disorders and transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of atrioventricular valves. The aim of this review is to detail the various tools used in cardiac catheterization for patients with Fontan circulation, analyze different percutaneous treatment strategies, and discuss the latest advancements in this field.
