Abdominal compartment syndrome caused by gastric distension in bulimia nervosa and fatal injury following surgical decompression - A case report.
Article in Anesthesia and pain medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAbdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) occurs due to increased abdominal cavity pressure, causes multiple organ damage, and leads to fatal consequences. Increased intraperitoneal pressure due to different reasons generally does not result in serious damage, due to the compliance of the abdominal wall. However, when the pressure exceeds the limit, ACS develops, thereby causing fatal damage to the organs. CASE: A patient presented with rapid stomach swelling due to excessive food intake and was known to have bulimia nervosa, which had now resulted in ACS. Mental changes, abdominal distension, color change in the legs, acute kidney injury, and acidosis were seen. The patient expired due to ischemia-reperfusion injury and disseminated intravascular coagulation, which occurred after surgical decompression.
conclusionsUnder suspected ACS conditions, we should be aware of various symptoms that can occur. Early attempts for decompression are helpful, and it is important to be prepared for reperfusion injury prior to surgical decompression attempts.
