[Multidisciplinary approach to treatment of positional cranial asymmetry in infants].

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 prevalence of positional cranial asymmetry has significantly increased since the introduction of the "Back to Sleep" campaign. Some deformities require therapeutic measures, such as growth-guiding head prostheses. The diagnosis is based on the clinical features, a thorough clinical examination and measurement of the infant's head. Prevention includes early education of parents about alternative positioning methods. Early interventions such as positioning therapy and physiotherapy can be effective in mild cases. In severe cases, the use of growth-guiding orthoses is necessary. The treatment and timing are crucial as head growth is highest in the first year of life. Helmet treatment should be started early to achieve optimal results in order to achieve an improvement in the head shape and ear position. Multidisciplinary approaches including physiotherapy and osteopathy are essential.
