Invasive aspergillosis causing gastric necrosis and perforation: A case report.
Article in JGH open : an open access journal of gastroenterology and hepatology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Aspergillosis is an opportunistic infection commonly seen in immunocompromised patients. Patients with hematological malignancies, postorgan transplantation, or those with comorbid conditions are susceptible to the development of invasive aspergillosis. Lungs are the main portal of entry and are thus most commonly involved. Aspergillosis can involve the gut, causing vascular thrombosis leading to ischemia and necrosis of the gut wall, resulting in perforation. Primary gastric involvement has been rarely seen, with few case reports in the literature. We report a rare case of primary invasive gastric aspergillosis in a 60-year-old diabetic and cirrhotic woman, who presented with clinical features of perforation peritonitis. Exploratory laparotomy was performed, and a 6 cm × 6 cm perforation with necrotizing inflammation was found in the distal stomach, pylorus, and duodenum. Distal gastrectomy with Billroth II reconstruction was performed. Pathology demonstrated septate fungal hyphae invading the gastric wall transmurally. The morphology was compatible with those of
