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 (CDH) is a rare condition, with many affected patients remaining asymptomatic, while others may present with non-specific respiratory manifestations. The coexistence of a CDH and a giant hiatal hernia is particularly uncommon. We report the case of a pediatric patient presenting with both a giant hiatal hernia and a CDH, accompanied by distinctive facial features. The initial presentation included poor oral intake and abnormal chest sounds, as observed by the patient's mother. A diagnostic evaluation using chest radiography and computed tomography confirmed the presence of both hernias. Subsequent genetic testing identified arterial tortuosity syndrome. The patient underwent primary surgical repair of both defects, along with partial fundoplication. The procedure was uneventful, and postoperative monitoring was carried out closely. Postoperatively, the patient developed dumping syndrome, which was successfully managed with octreotide. The patient demonstrated excellent clinical outcomes during follow-up.
