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

Wilkie's syndrome is a rare clinical disorder characterized by partial or complete obstruction of the duodenum. Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) is defined as hyperplasia of the smooth muscle fibers of the pylorus, which is considered responsible for narrowing the pyloric canal and eventually obstructing the gastric outlet. This paper presents a case of a 3-month-old boy who had been vomiting after feeding for one month. The main symptoms, postprandial vomiting, dehydration, alkalosis, and weight reduction, point to the IHPS disease. Imaging studies also confirmed the diagnosis. During the surgical treatment, a concomitant condition known as Wilkie's syndrome was also evidenced. The team performed a complex surgical treatment of a patient diagnosed with both Wilkie's syndrome and IHPS within one single surgical operation. Surgical treatment with pyloromyotomy and duodenal-duodenal anastomosis within one operation is an optimal option for one-stage treatment of patients with IHPS and Wilkie's syndrome.
