Gastroschisis or exomphalos? An unusual abdominal defect.

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
A baby with an antenatal diagnosis of exomphalos was born at term. The abnormality had a highly unusual appearance, a right-sided paraumbilical defect, similar to gastroschisis, but with a sac typical of exomphalos containing both abdominal contents and over 1 L of serosanguinous fluid. The sac was drained and suspended from the top of the incubator in silo fashion. Definitive closure was achieved at day 3 of life, and the patient had a non-eventful recovery. Despite exomphalos and gastroschisis normally being discrete entities, ambiguity in the presentation this case necessitated a composite management approach.
