Outcomes of infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia by side of defect in the FETO era.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo compare the outcomes of infants with a right (RCDH) versus a left-sided (LCDH) congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and whether these differed according to whether the infants had undergone fetoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO).
methodsDemographics, the type of surgical repair, preoperative and postoperative courses and respiratory, gastrointestinal, surgical and skeletal morbidities at follow-up were compared between infants with a RCDH or LCDH. A sub-analysis was undertaken in those who had undergone FETO.
resultsDuring the study period, there were 167 infants with a LCDH and 24 with a RCDH; 106 underwent FETO (15 RCDH). Overall, the need for inhaled nitric oxide (p = 0.036) was higher in the RCDH group and, at follow-up, infants with RCDH were more likely to have a hernia recurrence (p = 0.043), pectus deformity (p = 0.019), scoliosis (p = 0.029) and suffer chronic respiratory morbidity (p = 0.001). There were, however, no significant differences in short term or long term outcomes (hernia recurrence (p = 0.237), pectus deformity (p = 0.322), scoliosis (p = 0.0174) or chronic respiratory morbidity (p = 0.326)) between infants with a right or left sided CDH who had undergone FETO.
conclusionOverall, infants with a RCDH compared to those with a LCDH had greater long-term morbidity, but not if they had undergone FETO.
