Uncommon co-occurrence of ileal atresia and total colonic aganglionosis in two unrelated newborns.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We report two recent cases of distal ileal atresia associated with total colonic aganglionosis (TCA). It is well known that ileal atresia and Hirschsprung's disease (HD) are individually frequent causes of intestinal obstruction. However, the association of both these diseases is an extremely rare event. To our knowledge, only 19 cases of ileal atresia associated with HD have been described so far. When a child is diagnosed having ileal atresia, the possibility of associated TCA should be considered. Therefore, intra-operative staged biopsies should be sent for histological examination in order to rule out or confirm this very rare co-occurrence.
