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

Purpose: The aim of this study is to report surgical outcomes of the neonates who have undergone various surgical procedures. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, 39 neonates who have undergone a surgical procedure in Mogadishu Somalia Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Training and Research Hospital, between October 2018 and March 2019 were included. Data regarding age, gender, diagnosis, surgical procedure, length of hospital stay, mortality, and cause of mortality were recorded. Results: Of 39 neonates, 12 were female (30.7%) and 27 were male (69.3%). The mean age of the neonates at admission was 7.7 ± 7.6 days (1-30 days) days. The most common diagnoses were anal atresia ( Conclusion: The mortality rate from the surgical procedures of the neonates in Somalia is extremely high when compared with the developed countries. Employment of experienced pediatric surgeons and well-trained nurses, strict attention to the sanitary measures and shortening the time from birth to presentation might improve the surgical outcomes of the neonates in Somalia.
