An orphaned item is an item that needs a category attached to it. If you find them on your orphaned item list the products will not show in your store as the store doesn't know what category to show them in. All you have to do is open the item and attach a category and they will be taken off the list and shown in your store.
So just go into the orphaned item list and adopt them please. Adoption is a good thing
