Early onset necrotising enterocolitis in association with congenital diaphragmatic hernia in a term baby.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a case of a male, term newborn with known left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) who presented with circulatory compromise requiring maximal inotropic support in the first 24 hours of life. Repeat X-ray at 24 hours showed pneumatosis intestinalis. Emergency laparotomy was performed for suspected necrotising enterocolitis. The terminal ileum to the sigmoid colon were frankly necrotic with multiple perforations. Subtotal colectomy was performed. Although the recovery was protracted, the baby had a favourable outcome with progressive weight gain on follow-up at 3, 6 and 9 months of age.This case of CDH had a postnatal systemic instability that was more severe than predicted, and as well as assessing for persistent pulmonary hypertension of newborn should trigger immediate suspicion for other organ involvement.
