Minimally invasive management of combined esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula and duodenal atresia: a comprehensive case report.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
A newborn presented with a rare combination of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF) and duodenal atresia (DA), which was successfully managed using minimally invasive surgical techniques. The patient was a 1-day-old male for whom passing a feeding tube was infeasible and who had a double bubble sign on radiography. The neonate underwent a thoracoscopic ligation of the tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) and a laparoscopic duodeno-duodenostomy on the same day, resulting in stabilized vital signs. Ten days after the initial operation, a thoracoscopic esophago-esophagostomy was successfully performed. The patient demonstrated full feeding capability and normal weight gain after the surgeries. The co-occurrence of EA/TEF and DA is a rare and complex anomaly. This case indicates that minimally invasive techniques can effectively manage this condition.
