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

Unique problems in cecal embryogenesis and cecal pathology can result in characteristic imaging findings. Familiarity with these findings and utilization of an organized approach help to define the cecum's role in acute abdominal symptoms. Clinical symptoms associated with cecal diseases can be diverse and misleading. This pictorial essay should provide a framework for an understanding of anatomical, infectious, and inflammatory cecal diseases. Knowledge of a broad spectrum of cecal pathologies contributing to these disorders and their corresponding imaging findings can help a radiologist define the diagnosis and guide proper management.
