Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome: A Case Series.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The increasing prevalence of substance misuse in modern culture is contributing to the growth in neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) cases in India. NAS can be challenging to diagnose due to nonspecific symptoms and maternal suppression of drug history. Only a few reports of NAS have been published from India. This is a case series of three newborns from India who all had symptoms like restlessness, high-pitched crying, excessive sweating, vigorous sucking, tremors, and diarrhea. The investigations did not lead to any conclusions. In the first case, the mother was treated with a combination of psychotropic medications, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), atypical antipsychotics, and tricyclic antidepressants. In the second case, the mother was a nicotine addict, while in the third case, the mother had an opiate addiction. It was only after being asked several times that the abuse background of the last two cases was revealed. As a result, three cases of NAS were diagnosed, successfully managed with phenobarbitone, and discharged.
