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

Chronic pulmonary regurgitation (PR) after the repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and other right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) interventions leads to progressive right ventricular (RV) dilatation, altered ventricular-ventricular interaction, and an increased risk of arrhythmia and heart failure. Pulmonary valve replacement (PVR), whether surgical or transcatheter, effectively eliminates or reduces PR and is associated with short- and mid-term improvement in RV size, symptoms, and electrocardiographic markers. However, the optimal timing of intervention remains unresolved: operating late can result in irreversible myocardial damage and arrhythmogenic substrates, whereas operating early can lead to repeated reinterventions, the impact of which on hard outcomes is uncertain. This review summarizes contemporary evidence on ventricular remodelling after PVR, focusing on cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and echocardiographic markers, and critically appraises proposed criteria for timing PVR. Classic CMR-derived thresholds (RV end-diastolic volume index [RVEDVi] 150-170 mL/m
