Bronchoperitoneal and Enterocutaneous Fistula Development Following a Colorectal Anastomosis Leak.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Bronchoperitoneal fistulas are rare but serious pathologies that pose numerous treatment challenges to physicians. There is usually a delay in diagnosis, and treatment recommendations are mainly derived from case reports. Here, we present an interesting case of a patient who developed a left bronchoperitoneal fistula and two subsequent enterocutaneous fistulas resulting from a massive intra-abdominal phlegmon eroding through the left diaphragm. The patient experienced numerous medical complications during his hospital stay and required multiple operations. However, 18 months after his initial post-operative complication, the bronchoperitoneal fistula has healed, and the patient has undergone successful intestinal reconstruction. This case highlights multiple uncommon disease processes and the treatment strategies used.
