Congenital anomalies of the upper digestive tract: a review of esophageal and gastric embryology and malformations.
Review in Radiologia brasileira. 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
Congenital anomalies of the digestive system, particularly in the esophagus and stomach, present significant challenges to neonatal health due to their complex management and associated risks of morbidity and mortality. This narrative review explores esophageal and gastric anomalies, addressing the embryology, prevalence, diagnostic methods, and treatment approaches, with an emphasis on early detection and improved outcomes. Because of recent advances in prenatal imaging, such as ultrasonography and magnetic resonance, diagnostic accuracy has increased, allowing better clinical planning and management. Studies reveal that gastrointestinal anomalies account for approximately 20% of congenital malformations globally, having a substantial impact on neonatal health and healthcare systems. This review discusses critical anomalies, including esophageal atresia, tracheoesophageal fistula, antral stenosis, and antral atresia, with a focus on diagnostic criteria, surgical interventions, and prognostic factors. By highlighting current knowledge and best practices, we aim to underscore the importance of early, accurate diagnosis and continuous follow-up, which can ultimately improve neonatal outcomes and quality of life.
