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

Ileal J-pouch rectal anastomosis is a commonly performed procedure for patients who have undergone subtotal colectomy for ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis without rectal involvement. We herein report the case of a patient with ileal pouch volvulus that developed 15 years after subtotal colectomy for ulcerative colitis. A 62-year-old female visited our emergency room with complaints of abdominal pain and nausea that had persisted for 12 h. Abdominal radiography and contrast-enhanced computed tomography detected segmental distention of the small intestine around the staples. We diagnosed volvulus of the ileal pouch-rectal anastomosis and performed emergency laparotomy. We released the volvulus and performed pouchpexy. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 10, and recurrence of the volvulus has not been observed for 5 months since the procedure was performed. Our study indicates that an early diagnosis and intervention are needed to avoid serious complications, such as pouch necrosis and perforation, in such cases.
