1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Anorectal malformations and jejunoileal atresias are common causes of intestinal obstruction in neonates. Both have their own set of associated anomalies but it is extremely rare for the two to co-occur in the same patient. In this case report, we detail and describe this unusual incidence in a three-day-old neonate who was provisionally diagnosed with a case of simple imperforate anus. Per-op findings showed a type 4 Ileal atresia and an ileostomy was then created. Our experience stresses the importance of timely antenatal diagnosis and the presence of a high index of suspicion when encountering such patients. Both factors are key and crucial in determining the outcome and post-op course of the patient.
