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

Jugular vein phlebectasia is seen in the first decade of life and carries a high chance of misdiagnosis as it can often be mistaken for other conditions observed in pediatric populations. High clinical suspicion along with radiological studies can help to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment is usually conservative, with surgery reserved for unique circumstances. This is the first case to be reported with concomitant tracheomalacia and a history of tracheoesophageal fistula repair in a pediatric patient with external jugular vein phlebectasia.
