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

backgroundCMUSE is a rare disease whose diagnosis remains difficult because the lesion is confined to the small bowel. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we present a case of 43-year-old female patient suffered chronic abdominal pain for 20 years, and finally diagnosed with CMUSE. Capsule endoscopy was performed when general endoscopic investigation failed to find the lesion, but the capsule was stranded in the small intestine. Moreover, capsule retention results in acute intestinal obstruction. Thus, surgery was performed and CMUSE was confirmed. The patient was recovered after partial small intestine resection.

conclusionsCapsule retention occurred in nearly 60% of patients with CMUSE. Capsule endoscopy should be avoided when the patient is suspected of CMUSE, especially with severe anemia and radiologic finding in the ileum.
