Neonatal Lesser Omental Hernia Associated with Intestinal Malrotation and Congenital Duodenal Stenosis.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2026. 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
introductionLesser omental hernia is a rare type of internal hernia. Almost all previously reported cases are adult patients and neonatal cases are extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION: A 2-day old female baby was referred to our hospital due to vomiting with dark colored vomitus. The abdomen was slightly distended and enteral feeding failed to establish. A gastrointestinal series revealed intestinal malrotation, and the patient was taken to the operation room. Laparoscopic investigation revealed non-rotation type intestinal malrotation without volvulus. After extraction of the entire gastrointestinal tract via umbilical incision, the liver flexure part of the transverse colon was revealed to protrude to the inferior aspect of the liver through the dorsal area of the stomach, and a diagnosis of lesser omental hernia was made. The protruded colon was reverted to its normal position and the orifices were closed by suture. Additionally, duodenal stenosis with annular pancreas was found, which were corrected by diamond-shaped duodeno-duodenal anastomosis. A gastrostomy was made before the abdomen was closed. The perioperative course was uneventful and the baby was transferred to another hospital for congenital heart disease care.
conclusionsLesser omental hernias rarely occur congenitally. Careful exploration is necessary for neonatal gastrointestinal surgery, because rare abnormalities could occur. A 5-mm extension of the umbilical wound enabled exploration of the total alimentary tract without compromising cosmetic outcome.
