Gastrointestinal perforation: relation to corticosteroid use and COPD - a case report.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Gastrointestinal perforations are a complication of 2-10% of duodenal ulcers. There are a variety of etiologies associated with duodenal ulcer formation and its complications. Corticosteroid use is associated with an increased risk of duodenal ulcer perforation, with the first documented case in 1950. Other important medications associated with perforation include NSAIDS and opioids. Beyond medication, one of the most common disease processes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), has been found to be associated with peptic ulcer disease. Up to 30% of COPD patients have been found to have peptic ulcers, and COPD frequency in peptic ulcer disease is 2-3 times the general population. We herein present a case of an acute duodenal ulcer perforation in a patient receiving corticosteroid treatment for an acute COPD exacerbation.
