Successful surgical treatment of Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome with bilateral flail chest: a case report.
Article in BMC surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundDevelopment of multiple rib fractures leading to bilateral flail chest in Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome (CCS) has not been reported. CASE PRESENTATION: A 59-year-old man presented with complaints of fatigue, chest pain, respiratory distress and orthopnea requiring ventilatory support to maintain oxygenation. CCS with bilateral anterior and posterior flail chest due to multiple rib fractures (2nd-10th on the right side and 2nd-11th on the left side). He underwent open reduction and anterior and posterior internal fixation using a titanium alloy fixator and a nickel-titanium memory alloy embracing fixator for chest wall reconstruction. He recovered gradually from the ventilator and showed improvement in his symptoms. He gained about 20 kg of weight in the follow up period (6 months after discharge from the hospital).
conclusionCCS is a rare, complex disease that increases the risk of developing multiple rib fractures, which can be successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation.
