Profile and Epidemiology of Intussusception in Children Under-Two Years of Age: A Prospective Surveillance.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
objectiveTo report background intussusception epidemiology in children under-two years in Coimbatore district of Tamil Nadu state, India, prior to rotavirus vaccine (RVV) introduction.
methodsProspective sentinel surveillance was done at four hospitals in Coimbatore during April 2016 to September 2017. The children aged >1 mo and < 24 mo with diagnosed intussusception were recruited and data on clinical, treatment, diet, immunization, and sociodemography were collected.
resultsSixty-eight children with intussusception were recruited. Among them 76.5% were infants with male predominance (57.4%) and 48.5% were 4-8 mo old. Vomiting (83.8%), pain in abdomen (including excessive crying) (72.1%), and bloody stools (45.6%) were the main symptoms. Reduction was tried in 92.6% cases with success in 83.8%. Surgery was needed by 16.2% children. No child died. Any RVV dose was received by 24.1% children and 2 children received RVV in 8-21 d and none within 1-7 d window. The incidence of intussusception requiring hospitalization was estimated to be 36.4 and 11.7 cases/100,000 children/y for the first and second years, respectively.
conclusionIntussusception occurred in infants even without RVV exposure. Continued surveillance is needed to document the changes in intussusception epidemiology after RVV introduction.
