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 65-year-old woman presented with right lower quadrant (RLQ) abdominal pain of three days duration. During her hospitalization, she underwent computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen, duplex ultrasound of the abdomen, esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), and colonoscopy as part of a diagnostic workup. The workup identified high-grade obstructions of the celiac artery (CA), superior mesenteric artery (SMA), atypical appearing gastric ulcers, and a diffusely ulcerated cecum, which created a mass-like appearance. The patient developed cecal perforation despite mesenteric vessel stenting and ultimately required right hemicolectomy for definitive management. This case report represents a rare presentation of simultaneous gastric ischemia and cecal ischemia with necrosis in a patient with underlying peripheral vascular disease.
