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

Objective: To identify the various congenital malformations in liveborns in the neonatology service within the center of maternity and neonatology of Tunis (CMNT). Methods: This is a retrospective study of liveborns with congenital malformations hospitalized during one year from 1rst January to 31 December 2016. Results: The profile of malformations was dominated by polymalformations (22.29%), followed by chromosomal aberrations (21.14%), cardiovascular malformations (16.00%), and system nervous malformations (11.43%).Comparisons of liveborns and parental characteristics between all congenital malformations subtypes have shown significant differences in liveborns sex, consanguinity, and maternal age. Comparisons between malformed newborns and malformed fetuses have shown significant differences in consanguinity, rhesus type, maternal origin and parity. Conclusion: It seems important to set a careful surveillance of pregnancies at risk of developing congenital anomalies, systematic supplementation of vitamins and folic acid, and a national registry of congenital malformations.
