Internal jugular phlebectasia in pediatric patients: a report of two Saudi cases.

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
Phlebectasia is a rare condition that refers to the dilatation of any vein in the neck. It is more common in the internal jugular vein and in boys. Diagnosis of the condition is based on ultrasound with Doppler and contrast-enhanced computed tomography. Management of this condition is conservative unless there are complications that may require surgery. Here, we present two pediatric cases of internal jugular phlebectasia. The first patient was an 8-year-old boy, and the second was a 5-year-old boy. They both presented to our clinic with recurrent tonsillitis for tonsillectomy, and both were incidental findings.
