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

Coronary artery complications following the arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries have become increasingly relevant as those affected are exposed to the comorbidities of later years. A scoping review was undertaken to explore the incidence, clinical features, and management of the long-term coronary complications after the ASO. The selection criteria yielded 73 articles They recorded few long-term coronary artery complications following the ASO, which were difficult to recognize as most affected patients' symptoms were absent or nonspecific. In patients with suspected coronary artery involvement, coronary angiography or computed tomography provided confirmation, with significant stenosis generally managed by percutaneous trans-catheter interventions.
