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

Objective: To address the lack of routine hemodynamic assessment during aortic reconstruction in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) with a momentum-based metric from phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data (4D Flow). Methods: 4D Flow data were acquired in 100 subjects, including 22 Post-Fontan HLHS subjects (15 children, mean age 8.0 ± 1.7 years and 7 adolescents, mean age 15.1 ± 1.9 years) and 78 control subjects (mean age 7.6 ± 1.0 years). Comparative anatomic and functional analyses were performed in 4 segments: ascending aorta (AA), transverse arch (TA), and proximal and distal descending aortas (DA1 and DA2). Aortic growth was evaluated by its diameter indexed by body surface area, and early energy inefficiency was assessed by the advective pressure drop (PD Results: Post-Fontan HLHS children presented with early hemodynamic inefficiency at the TA-DA1 transition (median PD Conclusions: Early hemodynamic inefficiencies in the TA-DA1 transition in the HLHS aorta have been characterized.
