Multicentric paraspinal neuroglial heterotopia with Müllerian and renal agenesis: a variant of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome?
Article in Diagnostic pathology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Neuroglial heterotopia is a rare congenital anomaly that mostly involves the head and neck region. We report a female fetus with multicentric paraspinal neuroglial heterotopia in the retropharyngeal and retroperitoneal spaces, right renal agenesis, left renal hypoplasia, and Müllerian agenesis. Additional findings included bilateral preaxial polydactyly of the hands, megacystis, rectovesical fistula, and imperforate anus. The karyotype was 46, XX. This fetus had the features of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome with paraspinal neuroglial heterotopia. This is the first report of the co-occurrence of these two malformations which could share a common pathogenetic mechanism. We suggest this to be a variant MRKH syndrome.
