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

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is associated with high risk of neonatal death. It is observed in about 1 in 3,000 live births. Fetoscopic tracheal occlusion procedure is a therapeutic option with survival rate 46.4%. Our aim was analysis of the suitability of postmortem computed tomography in the case of neonatal death occurred after fetoscopic endotracheal occlusion performed due to the severe isolated left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Postmortem computed tomography can be helpful in such cases because it allows for an objective assessment of whether the procedures used after the birth of the newborn enabled effective lung ventilation. Our case was the first use of postmortem computed tomography in neonatal death after fetoscopic endotracheal occlusion worldwide.
