Perioperative and Long-Term Functional Outcomes of Children With Early Diagnosis Versus Late Diagnosis of Hirschsprung's Disease: A 30-Year Monocentric Retrospective Study.
Article in International journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the perioperative course and long-term functional outcomes of children with early and late diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease (HD). Methods: This retrospective study included patients affected by HD who underwent pull-through between 1984 and 2015. Patients were classified into two groups: early diagnosis of HD (EDHD) before 1 year of age and late diagnosis of HD (LDHD) after 1 year. Functional outcomes at 3, 6, and 9 years after surgery were analyzed. Results: One hundred and five patients, 83.8% with EDHD and 16.2% with LDHD. Abdominal distension and vomiting were the main presenting symptoms of EDHD, whereas chronic constipation was the primary symptom of LDHD. Preoperative intestinal obstruction occurred in 59.1% of EDHD versus 5.9% of LDHD ( Conclusion: Long-term functional outcome is generally comparable between patients with EDHD and LDHD.
