Perforated Jejunal Diverticulitis.
Article in Case reports in gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Small intestinal diverticula are very rare; their incidence ranges from 0.06 to 1.3%, with a higher prevalence after the 6th decade of life. Among these small intestinal diverticula, duodenal diverticula are more frequent, followed by diverticula of the jejunum and ileum. A jejunal diverticulum is usually asymptomatic; sometimes patients complain of vague chronic symptoms like malabsorption, pain, or nausea that easily lead to misdiagnosis. Complications are rarely reported, only in 10% of patients. We report a unique case of a 70-year-old female who presented with confusion due to sepsis from perforated jejunal diverticulitis, which was successfully managed with initial resuscitation and definitive surgery.
