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

The Toronto Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) Program at the University Health Network, University of Toronto, began in 1959. It traces its origins to a Paul Wood protégé, Dr. John Evans, and to a long-standing and supportive relationship with Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), located just across the street. Over the decades, the program has grown to become a major center for training and research in ACHD and one of the largest clinical programs for ACHD care globally. This paper recounts the 65-year history of the program, including some of its key individuals, challenges, milestones, innovations, discoveries, and future aspirations.
