Down syndrome masked by Marfan syndrome in a neonate.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A male neonate with maternally inherited Marfan syndrome was also diagnosed with Down syndrome at 3 weeks of age. To our knowledge this is the first described case in the literature of the co-occurrence of Down syndrome and Marfan syndrome in a neonate. The diagnosis of Down syndrome was delayed and we hypothesise that Marfan syndrome had masked the usual phenotypic features of Down syndrome. The phenotype of this child is intriguing and has lead to speculation of the possible interaction of the two syndromes.
