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

backgroundCongenital short bowel syndrome (SBS) associated with malrotation, gut volvulus and jejuno-ileal atresia is a very rare condition. It is a severe challenge for surgeons to preserve residual ischemic bowel segment in the management of short bowel syndrome,especially in neonates. CASE SUMMARY: We report a newborn baby with gut malrotation associated with jejuno-ileal atresia, congenital SBS and jejunal volvulus. Hematemesis and abdominal distention were noted. At laparotomy, malrotation associated with jejuno-ileal atresia, congenital SBS and jenunal volvulus was confirmed. The total length of the small bowel was 63 cm with proximal jejunal bowel segment measuring 38 cm, including 18 cm necrotic segment below the Treitz's ligament and 20 cm severe ischemic segment. The distal part of the small bowel was 25 cm in length and only about 0.8 cm in diameter. Ladd's procedure, necrotic segment resection and end-to-back duodeno-ileal anastomosis were performed. The residual severe ischemic jejunum was preserved with single proximal stoma and distal end closure. Three months later, to restore the continuity of the isolated gut segment, end-to-end duodeno-jejunal and jejuno-ileal anastomosis was performed. The entire functional small bowel length increased to 80 cm. Intravenous fluid therapy and parenteral nutrition were discontinued on the 10

conclusionIsolation of severe ischemic bowel segment and staged anastomosis to restore the gut continuity for infants with SBS are safe and feasible.
