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

We report a complex case involving an extremely rare cause of gastrointestinal dysmotility and an afferent loop, which together predisposed to the development of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. The bacteria subsequently became multi-resistant. As a further consequence of the dysmotility, repeated bile duct reflux occurred despite the afferent loop being unobstructed. This bile duct reflux produced recurrent sepsis through repeated episodes of ascending cholangitis. Ultimately, the patient was referred to a National Small Intestinal Transplant Centre for consideration for enterectomy and subsequent transplantation. We describe the difficulties encountered in managing this unique case and discuss the underlying aetiology.
