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

Victims of penetrating torso trauma often present with findings that necessitate emergent exploratory laparotomy, precluding scanning with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) until the postoperative period. This article reviews the wide range of complications as well as expected findings that may be encountered at MDCT performed postoperatively. Little has been written to guide the radiologist in interpreting these often complex and potentially confusing studies.
