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

introductionGastric fundus ischemia is a rare event, which does not account for many significant clinical studies. This disorder could have different etiologies, but authors agree that a prompt diagnosis and a proper treatment could avoid dangerous complications and ultimately the death of the patient. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We herein report an interesting idiopathic case of acute gastric dilatation and fundus ischemia of an 83-year-old Caucasic woman who was admitted to the Emergency Department complaining of abdominal discomfort, vomiting and constipation. DISCUSSION: In literature, only a few case reports about this condition are reported. Possible risk factors, etiologies, and the different therapeutic options available for this condition are examined, in order to try to favor clinicians to formulate a timely diagnosis and provide patients with rapid healthcare services.

conclusionFurther investigations are still needed to analyze the pathophysiological pathways responsible of gastric fundus ischemia and to provide a definitive treatment to this dangerous disorder.
