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

Hiatal hernia is the passage of digestive tract portions into the posterior mediastinum through a defect in the esophageal diaphragmatic hiatus. By guidelines, the diagnosis uses first-level radiographic investigations such as chest X-ray and contrastographic methods. As of today, use of ultrasonography in the suspicion/diagnosis of hiatal hernia is not standardized although it shows advantages such as not using ionizing radiation, which is essential in the small pediatric patient. We report the case of a little 4-month-old patient who came to our attention for dysphagia, vomiting and borborygmus to whom Type II hiatal hernia was suspected by ultrasound investigation, later confirmed by guidelines approved methods.
