Lethal small intestinal herniation through a congenital mesenteric defect.

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
A three-year-old boy with mild symptoms of an upper respiratory tract infection and recent onset vomiting collapsed at home. Resuscitative attempts in hospital were eventually unsuccessful. At autopsy an obstruction of the small intestine, with ischemia, was identified. It had been caused by strangulation of the small intestine through a congenital mesenteric defect. Moderate mesenteric lymphadenopathy, with enlarged lymph nodes in the region of the herniated small intestine, were associated with positive testing for human metapneumovirus and enterovirus. Transmesenteric hernias are a very rare form of internal herniation that have the highest risk of strangulation. Unfortunately in children the presentation may be relatively nonspecific with a precipitate decline towards the end. In the reported case it is possible that mesenteric lymphadenopathy may have contributed to intestinal entrapment by preventing spontaneous reduction.
