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

Background: Craniosynostosis is the premature closure of cranial sutures. According to the literature, several factors are related to this disorder. Due to the relatively high prevalence in Iran and a lack of related studies in this region, this study was designed to determine the characteristics of a group of these patients in this region. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed from 2016 to 2019 at two tertiary referral hospitals for children in Isfahan, Iran. Studied variables included: age, sex, birth weight, type of craniosynostosis, concurrent anomalies, parents' age, father's job, fetus position, maternal parity, history of maternal smoking during the pregnancy, use of fertility assistant treatments, and history of maternal endocrine disorders. Results: We had 125 infants, including 82 (65.6%) males and 43 (34.4%) females. The most common type was metopic (29%). The most common concurrent disorder was congenital heart defects (43.2% of patients). The mean age of infants was 0.62SD0.59 years. Gender distribution showed a significant difference ( Conclusion: Craniosynostosis is more prevalent in boys, especially the metopic type. Coronal type has a female predilection. The most common subtype is metopic. The most common concurrent congenital disorder is congenital heart defects.
