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

Herniation, rotation, looping, and retraction of the midgut occur sequentially during midgut morphogenesis. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of mechanical forces arising from the differential growth between the midgut and mesentery in the formation of small intestinal loops. However, the roles of mechanics and differential growth in the overall process remain unclear. In this study, we developed a computational model of midgut morphogenesis based on continuum mechanics. We showed that the protrusion, rotation, and retraction of the midgut can emerge sequentially because of temporal changes in differential growth. The midgut was modeled as a hyperelastic tube with a Gaussian shape. The differential growth of the midgut and mesentery was modeled by the spatial variation in spontaneous plastic deformation. The hyperelastic tube developed a protrusion by compression-induced deformation, suggesting that other external forces are not necessary for midgut herniation prior to rotation. Appropriate differential growth induced a
