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: Intussusception is a well-recognized cause of intestinal obstruction in infants but is rare in neonates, particularly in preterm infants. Because its clinical presentation can resemble necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), diagnosis may be delayed when imaging findings are nonspecific. Early recognition is important to prevent complications. Case Presentation: A preterm infant born at 31 + 1 weeks of gestation was discharged on Day 22 after an initial course complicated by respiratory distress, sepsis, jaundice, and Grade I intraventricular hemorrhage (using Papile classification). On the 26 Conclusion: Intussusception in preterm neonates may present with subtle clinical signs and can mimic NEC. When abdominal radiographs are inconclusive, ultrasonography plays a crucial role in establishing an early diagnosis and may allow successful conservative management, avoiding unnecessary surgical intervention.
