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 pyloric atresia (CPA) is a rare gastrointestinal anomaly frequently associated with epidermolysis bullosa (EB). Although the complications of familial isolated CPA are minor, delays in diagnosis can increase the chances of morbidity. CASE PRESENTATION: Three female infants born to a Japanese mother presented with CPA at birth. There was no consanguinity between the parents, and the spacing between pregnancies was 2 years in each case. All 3 siblings had a prenatal diagnosis of CPA owing to polyhydramnios and a dilated stomach, without dilatation of the rest of the gastrointestinal tract. All patients underwent reconstructive surgeries for establishing bowel continuity (Case 1, pyloromyotomy; Case 2, gastroduodenostomy in a diamond fashion; and Case 3, gastroduodenostomy in a side-to-side fashion) soon after birth. Their postoperative courses were uneventful, and they grew up healthily, without any complications.

conclusionFetal ultrasonography is useful for diagnosing CPA prenatally. Successful prenatal diagnosis can lead to timely intervention after birth.
