Spontaneous rupture of a parastomal hernia with evisceration of small bowel: a case report.
Article in BMC surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundLong standing ostomy related complications such as parastomal hernia and stoma prolapse may be at a higher risk of developing spontaneous rupture and evisceration, especially in patients suffering from chronic cough. Such patients may need early refashioning of the stoma to prevent this serious complication. Parastomal evisceration is a very rare complication of stomas and to date, only few cases have been reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION: A 51 year old patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and extensive hidradenitis suppurativa of the perineum underwent a temporary defunctioning loop sigmoid colostomy and subsequent perineal skin excision and skin grafting. The ostomy was complicated by a parastomal hernia and stoma prolapse 6 weeks post operatively. Five months later he developed spontaneous rupture of parastomal hernia and evisceration of small bowel. Urgent surgery was done and reduction of small bowel loops and re-siting of the sigmoid colostomy was done. DISCUSSION AND
conclusionsParastomal evisceration is an extremely rare life threatening stoma-related complication which requires urgent treatment.
