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

purposeThe aim of this long-term follow-up study was to investigate the current self assessed physical health in a CDH birth cohort at a single center.

methodsBetween 1990 and 2009, 195 children born with CDH were treated at Astrid Lindgren Children's Hospital. The primary survival rate was 85 %, and in 2010, 78 % were still alive. Data from medical records were supplemented by a questionnaire consisting of questions about perceived physical function. Patients were divided into groups according to time for intubation and need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

resultsChildren born with CDH reported themselves to be having greater problems with asthma, developmental delay, seizure disorder, poor vision, and scoliosis in comparison with normal Swedish children. They also described a sense of having less strength and becoming breathless more often than healthy friends. Symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux and abdominal pain were also reported.

conclusionsThe majority of the children perceived their physical health as being overall good, but there was an increase of reported symptoms correlating with the severity of the malformation.
