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

Congenital abdominal wall defects occur when normal embryonic development is interrupted and most commonly results in gastroschisis or omphalocele. Other entities, such as ruptured omphalocele, vanishing gastroschisis, and patent omphalomesenteric ducts with prolapse, have also been described and can create a confusing picture. This case of a newborn with a midline abdominal defect and a mass that was intestine-like and arose from the bowel cannot be classified, and no similar reports were found. This suggests a previously undescribed abdominal wall defect with an aberrant colonic appendage.
