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

Oesophageal atresia with or without tracheo-oesophageal fistula, ileal atresia and Hirschsprung's disease are surgical malformations of the gastrointestinal tract typically diagnosed early in the neonatal period and varying in severity and prognosis. This report describes a full-term male newborn presenting simultaneous oesophageal atresia with distal tracheo-oesophageal fistula, ileal atresia and Hirschsprung's disease. In addition to the complex types of gastrointestinal malformations involved, the combination of ileal atresia and Hirschsprung's disease, as well as ganglion cells distal to intestinal atresia, resulted in a challenging diagnosis. Despite a successful outcome, the patient presented increased morbidity and prolonged hospitalisation. We highlight some important findings that may aid the early diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease in this clinical setting. To our knowledge, the association of oesophageal atresia/tracheo-oesophageal fistula, ileal atresia and Hirschsprung's disease has not been previously reported.
