Unusual cause of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia: a twin case.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2019. 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 present twins born to the 31-year-old, multigravida mother, who were referred to our centre at 90 hours of life for severe hyperbilirubinaemia. Twin 1 had already received two double volume exchange transfusions at 55 and 83 hours of life, in view of the persistent rise in bilirubin despite receiving phototherapy. Twin 2 had received phototherapy and 1 packed red blood cell transfusion in view of the fall in haematocrit. Mother's blood group was B positive and that of both twins was O positive. Both the twins were started on intensive phototherapy and their serum bilirubin and haematocrit were evaluated. On investigation, a minor blood incompatibility was found. Double volume exchange transfusion was done for twin 2 at 100 hours of life in view of the rapid rise in serum bilirubin. Both the babies were monitored for their serum bilirubin and treated for sepsis and discharged after 15 days.
