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

Midgut malrotation is a congenital anomaly due to partial or complete failure of rotation of the midgut in fetal life. Majority of the cases present in the neonatal period and 90% within the first year. Adult presentation is rare and the true incidence is unknown as some cases pass undiagnosed. Whirlpool sign is pathognomic for midgut malrotation and management involves surgery.
