A case report of esophageal perforation: Complication of nasogastric tube placement.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers.
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
patientMale, 70 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Esophageal perforation Symptoms: Abdominal pain • nausea • vomiting MEDICATION: - Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Surgery.
objectiveUnusual clinical course.
backgroundEsophageal perforation is a well-defined and severe clinical condition. There are several etiologies of esophagus perforation. CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 70-year-old Caucasian man who underwent an emergency cholecystectomy due to acute cholecystitis. Two days after surgery, his condition deteriorated. Thorax computerized tomography revealed an esophageal perforation.
conclusionsEsophageal perforation due to nasogastric application is relatively rare but the consequences are potentially serious. The anatomy of the upper gastrointestinal system should be understood by all healthcare professionals involved in the treatment.
