Hippocampal rotation is associated with ventricular atrial size.
Article in Pediatric radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundFetal ventriculomegaly is a source of apprehension for expectant parents and may present prognostic uncertainty for physicians. Accurate prenatal counseling requires knowledge of its cause and associated findings as the differential diagnosis is broad. We have observed an association between ventriculomegaly and incomplete hippocampal inversion.
objectiveTo determine whether ventricular size is related to incomplete hippocampal inversion. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated pre- and postnatal brain MRIs in normal subjects (mean GA, 31 weeks; mean postnatal age, 27 days) and patients with isolated ventriculomegaly (mean GA, 31 weeks; mean postnatal age, 68 days) at a single academic medical center. Lateral ventricular diameter, multiple qualitative and quantitative markers of hippocampal inversion, and evidence of intraventricular hemorrhage were documented.
resultsIncomplete hippocampal inversion and ventricular size were associated in both normal subjects (n=51) and patients with ventriculomegaly (n=32) (P<0.05). Severe ventriculomegaly was significantly associated with adverse clinical outcome in postnatal (P=0.02) but not prenatal (P=0.43) groups. In all additional cases of isolated ventriculomegaly, clinical outcome was normal over the time of assessment (mean 1±1.9 years; range 0.01 to 10 years).
conclusionLateral ventricular atrial diameter and incomplete hippocampal inversion are associated. Less hippocampal inversion correlates with larger atria. For every 1-mm increase in fetal ventricular size, the odds of incomplete hippocampal inversion occurring increases by a factor of 1.6 in normal controls and 1.4 in patients with ventriculomegaly.
