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

A 50-year-old man underwent laparoscopic hernia repair for a groin hernia, presenting acute abdominal pain and bowel obstruction syndrome 1 day post surgery. Diagnostic laparoscopy was performed at postoperative the day after the hernioplasty and a volvulus was found. The residual end of the barbed V-LOC adopted in the peritoneal closure was incidentally hooked to the mesentery and caused a small bowel obstruction as a volvulus. The redundant V-LOC strand was released and cut superficial to the peritoneum. A detorsion of volvulus was preformed. Neither bowel ischemia nor significant bowel injury was noted. The following day he was discharged without complication. The residual 'free' barbel suture in the peritoneal cavity invited adhesion formations and subsequently the Bowel obstruction.
