Situs Inversus Totalis in Association With Duodenal Atresia.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Situs inversus totalis is the mirror image transposition of the abdominal-thoracic viscera. Approximately one in every 5,000 to 20,000 live births has situs inversus totalis. Most commonly, it is found incidentally and is asymptomatic. A number of malformations, including cardiac, splenic, and gastrointestinal, have been associated with this condition. Coexistence with duodenal atresia is extremely rare, reported in fewer than 30 cases worldwide and one case in Saudi Arabia. We report a preterm neonate who presented with bilious vomiting. Diagnosis of situs inversus totalis with duodenal atresia type III was established and other anomalies were ruled out. The patient was managed surgically by duodenal-duodenostomy and Ladd's procedure. The report emphasizes the importance of identifying this condition and recognizing the "mirror anatomy" before carrying out an operation. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, surgical intervention must be performed as soon as possible to prevent complications.
