Similarities and differences in the epidemiology of pyloric stenosis and SIDS.
Article in Maternal and child health journal, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Similar temporal declines in infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and other common features have led to hypotheses about a shared etiology. We carried out a population-based study to highlight similarities and differences between IHPS and SIDS. We used vital statistics and hospitalization data on all live births in Washington State, USA (1987-2009). Changes in IHPS and SIDS rates over time were quantified using rate ratios with 95 % confidence intervals (CI). The duration between birth and diagnosis of IHPS or SIDS was examined as a function of gestational age at birth. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors and quantify adjusted temporal trends (2000-2008). Although both IHPS and SIDS rates declined significantly between 1987 and 2008, the patterns and magnitude of the declines (40 and 74 %, respectively) were different. IHPS and SIDS shared risk factors such as maternal smoking and single parent status but other factors showed qualitatively or and quantitatively different associations. Primiparity was a risk factor for IHPS [odds ratio (OR) 1.24, 95 % CI 1.09-1.41], and a protective factor for SIDS (OR 0.44, 95 % CI 0.36-0.55), while male sex had a stronger association with IHPS (OR 4.51, 95 % CI 3.85-5.28 vs 1.36, 95 % CI 1.13-1.64). Both IHPS and SIDS showed significant inverse associations between gestational age at birth and chronologic age at diagnosis/death. IHPS and SIDS share some epidemiologic features and risk factors but other risk factors have qualitatively or quantitatively different effects and recent temporal trends in the two diseases are dissimilar.
