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
Symptomatic congenital intestinal malrotation during adulthood is a rare condition usually presented as a chronic clinical condition superimposable to an upper intestinal obstruction. Symptoms tend to be nonspecific, varying from intermittent episodes of vomiting, food intolerance, and weight loss, leading to a delayed diagnosis worsening the patient's functional reserve. High clinical suspicion leads to the request of the request of requesting adequate diagnostic imaging, with computerized tomography being the imaging of choice. While Ladd surgery is the standard of care, the approach is controversial with a tendency for minimal invasive surgery due to faster postoperative recovery, better pain management, and shorter hospital stays. A case of female patient in her 80s is presented with 6 months symptoms of vomiting and weight loss. Computed tomography scan diagnosed an upper intestinal obstruction due to intestinal malrotation. Intraoperative findings showcased a duodenojejunal junction stenosis due to the presence of Ladd bands. Ladd surgery was performed without concomitant appendicectomy.
