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

We describe a case of a 76-year-old man with a giant ileal gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) causing an intestinal subocclusion and a subsequent haemoperitoneum. During his hospital stay for a sudden hypovolemic shock, the patient underwent an urgent laparotomy and a 20 cm × 15 cm ruptured ileal GIST causing haemoperitoneum was found. Only 13 cases of ileal GIST causing peritoneal bleeding have been described since 2000, the one we presented is the largest. Although rare this pathological entity should be kept in mind in case of sudden abdominal pain and hypovolemic shock in patients with a large intraabdominal mass.
