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

Sprengel's deformity is a conspicuous anomaly, affecting one or both scapulas. The congenital elevation of the scapula is frequently accompanied by additional anomalies, such as rib, vertebral, or muscular deformities, among which are rib fusion or vertebral deformity. Defects in the cervical vertebrae are most likely to result in Klippel-Feil syndrome, which is characterised by a short neck, restrictions on head mobility, and low-growing neck hair. Fewer than half of the instances had scoliosis, which is compensatory due to efforts to straighten the spine. The present case report was the case of Sprengel's deformity reported to our department.
