Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis in Dizygotic Twins: Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) is a disorder encountered in infancy that is caused by hypertrophy of the musculature of the pylorus of the stomach. It may present as partial or complete gastric outlet obstruction. Multiple previous literatures have discussed the incidences and variability in the presentation of IHPS. However, there are very few reports of IHPS occurring in dizygotic twins, especially dizygotic twins of different sexes. Here we present a very rare case of dizygotic twins (a male and a female) affected with IHPS. With this study, we aim to identify the factors that lead to variability in severity and onset of symptoms in dizygotic twins of the opposite sex. We also aim to pay special attention to the etiology and mechanism of development of IHPS in dizygotic twins of the opposite sex.
