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

Necrotizing enterocolitis is an overwhelming, catastrophic gastrointestinal disease largely affecting premature infants. The disease is manifested by exaggerated intestinal inflammation, which can progress to necrosis of the bowel and systemic sepsis. Prognosis is poor, with unacceptably high mortality. There is currently no known cure, with management focused on supportive measures, including bowel rest, gastric decompression, and antibiotic administration. Surgical intervention is required for cases unresponsive to medical management. In this review, we describe the determination of the need for surgical intervention, the surgical procedures commonly employed, and novel perioperative adjuncts being developed to improve outcomes.
