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

introductionSuccessful nonoperative management has been reported for esophageal perforation; however, some cases require surgery. CASE PRESENTATION: We presented the case of an 85-year-old woman with iatrogenic thoracic esophageal perforation in whom primary repair or resection of the perforated esophagus was difficult because she was elderly and had severe aortic valve stenosis. Therefore, we selected a two-stage surgery; laparoscopic gastrostomy, jejunostomy, posterior mediastinal drainage, and cervical esophagostomy were performed. We planned reconstruction after the perforation was closed, but endoscopic examination revealed spontaneous patency of each esophageal stump. Endoscopic balloon dilation was necessary because of esophageal stenosis; however, anastomotic surgery was unnecessary.

conclusionThis case report suggests that esophageal perforation is resolved without direct closure if appropriate drainage is performed.
