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

Ectopia cordis (EC) is a rare malformation that occurs as an isolated lesion or as part of the pentalogy of Cantrell which is characterized by midline closure defects. This was first described by Haller et al. in 1706. EC is seen with a frequency of 5.5-7.9 per 1 million births. It has five types that are: cervical, cervico-thoracic, thoracic, thoraco-abdominal, and abdominal. Its differentiation from the pentalogy of Cantrell, first described by Cantrell in 1958, must be done well. Thoracic type has the worst prognosis and due to this poor prognosis in the postnatal period, termination may be offered to these patients as an option. In this paper, a case of an isolated thoracic-type complete EC detected in the prenatal ultrasonography of a pregnant woman referred to our clinic at the 18 weeks and 3 days of gestation is presented.
