Controversies in Hirschsprung surgery.
Review in World journal of pediatric surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 treatment of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is surgical resection of aganglionic bowel and subsequent pull-through of ganglionated bowel. Despite many advances since the initial description of the disease and its surgical management more than half a century ago, there remain considerable controversies regarding the history of the surgical technique, the optimal timing of the primary and multistage pull-through, the best treatment for patients with a delayed diagnosis of HSCR, and the management of post pull-through complications such as soiling due to sphincter incompetence, the presence of a transition zone, and the prevention of enterocolitis. The following review will explore each of these controversies.
