Dual Challenges: A Case Report of Hirschsprung's Disease and Anorectal Malformation in a Child.
Article in Pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology & nutrition, 2025. 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
Hirschsprung's disease (HD) and anorectal malformations (ARMs) are rare congenital conditions with an incidence of approximately 1 per 5,000 live births. While each condition presents unique challenges, their simultaneous occurrence is rare, complicating diagnosis and surgical management. A 6-year-old female with ARM, previously managed by colostomy and anorectoplasty, continued to experience stool passage issues. Further evaluation of colonic biopsies confirmed the diagnosis of aganglionosis and HD. A modified Duhamel procedure was performed to remove the aganglionic segment and restore bowel function. The postoperative care was uneventful, and the patient was discharged with normal bowel function. This case illustrates the diagnostic complexity of HD in patients with ARM in whom symptom overlap and diagnostic delays are common. Comprehensive evaluation and customized surgical management are essential along with long-term follow-up to monitor complications and improve quality of life.
