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

Background: Traditional bibliometric measures present limitations in capturing broader societal influence of medical research. Objective: To evaluate the altmetric performance of the Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional analysis with longitudinal trends (2008-2024) was conducted using Altmetric Explorer platform. The Altmetric Attention Scores (AAS), mention counts, platform-specific engagement, geographic distribution, and demographic patterns were analyzed. Website analytics and bibliometric comparisons supplemented altmetric findings. Results: Of 266 tracked articles (Altmetric.com), 200 (75.2%) received online mentions, generating 1236 total mentions across 13 digital platforms. Twitter/X dominated engagement (994 mentions, 80.4%), followed by news outlets (92 mentions, 7.4%). Peak attention occurred in 2024 with over 500 mentions. The highest-performing article achieved an AAS of 330, ranking within the top 5% globally tracked by Altmetric. Geographic analysis revealed international reach across 180 countries, with predominant engagement from Japan, USA, and Canada. The case reports of rare congenital anomalies generated highest social media attention, contrasting with highly-cited systematic reviews and clinical guidelines that received minimal online visibility. Conclusions: Despite being a regional specialty journal,
