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

We demonstrate a quick sliding of the descending aorta toward the unaffected side of the diaphragm as a new sonographic finding during breathing in pediatric patients with diaphragmatic paralysis. We present three pediatric patients with diaphragmatic paralysis after cardiovascular surgery with this new sonographic finding. This finding consisted of paradoxical movement of the diaphragm as shown by fluorography. This sonographic sign was only obtained by a B-mode scan in the subxiphoid plane, was easily demonstrated at the patient's bedside, and may be useful for diagnosing severe diaphragmatic paralysis.
