Pulmonary outcomes of congenital diaphragmatic hernia patients based on defect size (CDH Study Group Stage).
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is associated with significant pulmonary morbidity. Previous investigation has shown that postnatal inpatient morbidity is linked to diaphragmatic defect size. The objective of this study was to evaluate long-term pulmonary outcomes by CDH study group defect size. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted for CDH patients (n=133) managed in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at a single children's hospital within an adult hospital system and subsequently followed up at a comprehensive multidisciplinary CDH clinic (n=102) from January 2012 to April 2022. CDH patients were stratified according to Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Study Group (CDHSG) Stage, and then categorized as low-risk (LR), defect size A and B, or high-risk (HR), defect size C and D. Inpatient data, including the presence of pulmonary hypertension, extracorporeal life support (ECLS) utilization, and mechanical ventilation days, were collected. Post-discharge data including the prevalence of asthma, pulmonary hypertension, emergency department visits, the total number of hospitalizations, and average rehospitalization days were collected. Frequentist analysis was used. Results: The outcomes for 133 NICU patients were analyzed (HR: n=54, LR: n=79). During NICU stay, the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension [HR: 16/54 (30%) Conclusions: HR CDHSG Stage is associated with worse inpatient and long-term pulmonary outcomes.
