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

Jarcho-Levin syndrome (JLS) is a congenital dysostosis characterized by multiple vertebral and intrinsic rib abnormalities. JLS and neural tube abnormalities rarely occur together. There have been few cases of JLS associated with a split spinal cord malformation (diastematomyelia). A dorsal dermal sinus is a tract from the skin that may end in soft tissue, epidural space, or most commonly intradural. We report the case of a 5-day-old male neonate with JLS who presented with respiratory distress immediately after birth. A chest radiograph revealed multiple bilateral asymmetric rib deformities and irregular rib fusions, multi-level segmentation defects of the thoracic vertebrae, and associated dextroconvex scoliosis of the thoracic spine. He was subsequently diagnosed with diastematomyelia, a dorsal dermal sinus, and tethered cord on ultrasound. The infant succumbed to respiratory distress from superimposed pneumonia. JLS is rarely associated with distematomyelia, and there are only ten reports worldwide. We presented the eleventh case of JLS with type 2 diastematomyelia. In addition, this is the first reported case of co-occurrence with a dorsal dermal sinus.
