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

purpose of the studyPolysplenia is a complex polymalformative syndrome that is frequently accompanied by an inconsistent spectrum of visceral and vascular anatomical abnormalities and is extremely undiscovered in adulthood. The objective of this article is to limit the intraoperative risks generated by the lack of knowledge of these anatomical variations by insisting on the inconstancy of all these variations and the perfect knowledge of the reference anatomy and the exploration of the anatomical variations in imaging before the surgery. PATIENT AND

methodsThe patient was 50-year-old who was hospitalized in our department for gastric adenocarcinoma. During her extension assessment, a polysplenia syndrome was accidentally discovered on the scan images, which showed an exceptional association between preduodenal portal vein, agenesis of the dorsal pancreas, and polysplenia.

conclusionThere are neither specific clinical symptoms of the polysplenia syndrome, nor any biological sign; hence, the interest of recognizing this pathology is to avoid diagnostic errors, but also to guide the surgeon during the surgical act performed.
