Midgut malrotation: a rare presentation of bowel obstruction in the adult.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Intestinal malrotation is a rare congenital abnormality. Usually, patients with malrotation of the intestine present in the neonatal period or the first year of life while some may remain asymptomatic and present later in childhood or adulthood. The diagnosis is usually delayed due to the sequence of events being that of non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms, which culminates in either adhesive bowel obstruction or volvulus. A 59-year-old male diagnosed with a large, incarcerated, right inguinoscrotal hernia underwent emergency laparotomy, which revealed midgut malrotation and small bowel obstruction due to Ladd bands. A modified Ladd's procedure and right inguinal herniorrhaphy was performed.
