Early Adjuvant Medication With the mTOR Inhibitor Sirolimus in a Preterm Neonate With Compressive Cystic Lymphatic Malformation.

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
Cystic lymphatic malformations result from an abnormal embryological development of the lymphatic structures. Here we report on a case of a preterm female baby, born at 34 weeks of gestation, with a voluminous cervicofacial cystic lymphatic malformation responsible for an airway obstruction. An mTOR inhibitor, sirolimus, was started from the first day of life, and was combined with iterative sclerotherapy procedures. This case illustrates a safe and successful early administration of sirolimus in a preterm neonate.
