Asymptomatic free intraperitoneal gas with duodenal stenosis.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 30-year-old man was referred to our hospital in October 2006 for asymptomatic free air in the peritoneal cavity found on a plain chest X-ray on a routine health examination. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed an ulcer scar and deformity of the duodenal bulb, a healing-phase ulcer in the anterior wall of the upper gastric corpus, grade B esophagitis (Los Angeles grading system), and a sliding hiatal hernia. A test for Helicobacter pylori was negative. Upon obtaining an informed consent (asymptomatic perforation), laparoscopic selective proximal vagotomy, Toupet fundoplication, and small skin incision Finney pyloroplasty were performed. Intraoperatively, extensive adhesions of the greater omentum to the duodenal bulb were found, which were suspected to engulf the cryptic perforation. The patient's postoperative course has been uneventful and, at present, recurrence of the ulcer has not been observed. The presented case is rare considering the absence of surgical history, lack of symptoms, and incidental finding of the intraperitoneal free air during a health examination.
