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

Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a rare autosomal dominant connective tissue disease. Patients with vEDS are at a high risk of developing severe complications (such as arterial aneurysm, arterial rupture, intestinal rupture) at an early age. We report a case of colonic perforation in a vEDS patient with no family history of that disease. A 28-year-old man with abdominal pain arrived at our hospital in an ambulance. The preoperative diagnosis was panperitonitis due to gastrointestinal perforation. Although his parents had not suffered from vEDS, he had been diagnosed with the disease at 25 years of age because of his history of arterial dissection. We performed an emergency operation using Hartmann's procedure to construct a descending colostomy. There remains a lack of consensus on surgical management in vEDS patients with gastrointestinal perforation because of the limited number of reported cases.
