Partial Glossectomy in a 2-month-old Infant with Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome - A Case Report.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rationale: Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by aberrant growth patterns, tumour risk and a wide range of clinical symptoms. This illness necessitates a multidisciplinary strategy to address the metabolic, multi-organ and structural issues of considerable health concern. Patient Concern: A 56-day-old infant presents with macroglossia due to BWS. Diagnosis: On examination, the infant revealed an enlarged protruded tongue causing difficulty in sleeping, feeding and breathing. Treatment: The infant underwent a successful anteroposterior keyhole glossectomy, which improved his airway function, eating and overall quality of life. Tongue tissue was carefully excised and anatomically reconstructed to enhance the function. Outcome: The patient was followed for up to 22 months; the results were acceptable, with the tongue in its normal position, improved breathing and no feeding issues. Take-away Lesson: In this case report, early intervention improved respiratory function, obstructive sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome and encouraged normal growth and development.
