Histopathologic Analysis in Sudden Infant and Child Deaths: A Practical Approach.
Review in Academic forensic pathology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
The forensic pathologist responsible for sudden unexpected death (SUD) investigation in the pediatric setting faces many challenges. It usually takes many years to obtain reasonable experience and exposure to the wide variety of diseases that may present as SUD in a pediatric context, and to appreciate the differences in the etiology and clinical context between the pediatric and adult SUD setting. In pediatric SUD, it is necessary to conduct a systematic, pediatric-focused autopsy investigation including extensive histopathological assessment and ancillary testing. Postmortem histologic findings in the context of SUD in the pediatric population are often subtle and distinctly different from those seen in the adult population. The pathologist must have an understanding of both developmental and pathological processes in order to correctly interpret the findings during a pediatric autopsy. A system-based, histopathology-focused review of common entities, normal variants, and incidental findings that can prove challenging will be discussed. For the forensic pathologist tasked with pediatric SUD autopsies, development of a strong collaborative relationship with a pediatric pathologist and/or neuropathologist to assist with histopathological analysis is strongly endorsed.
