Seasonality, Epidemiology and Outcome of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia in South West of Iran.
Article in Journal of neonatal surgery. 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
introductionThe pathogenesis of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is not clear. Risk factors including environmental factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of few congenital anomalies. We aimed to assess the effect of season on the incidence of CDH and mortality rate in the southwest of Iran. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn this retrospective study, the records of 60 patients with CDH who were admitted at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of Imam Khomeini Hospital of Ahvaz, Iran were evaluated.
resultsAssuming that all the neonates born with CDH in the region reach this hospital, overall CDH prevalence rate was 1.09 per 10 000 total births. Conceptions in spring and summer in this region had statistically significantly higher incidence of CDH. Survival rate in the series was 41.6%.
conclusionSeasonal variation has impact on the incidence of CDH. Mortality rate in neonates with CDH is still very high.
