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

The aim of this paper is to present the case of a 40-year-old man who accidentally ingested a piece of metal. The patient complained of having intermittent right lower quadrant abdominal pain for 2 days. An abdominal X-ray was performed, and a piece of metal was found in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen. There was no gas in the abdominal cavity. Surgical treatment was therefore needed. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) was attempted with conventional laparoscopic instruments. The foreign body was identified around the ileocecal region, an enterostomy was made and the foreign body was successfully removed. Subsequently, the incised ileocecal was wall sutured. The time for this surgery was 1 h with little bleeding. The patient made a quick recovery with a good cosmetic outcome. Based on this case, the use of SILS-assisted technique in the removal of an ileocecal foreign body proves to be safe and feasible.
