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

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a severe form of gastrointestinal dysmotility (often due to derangement of the innervation and/or smooth muscle and/or interstitial cells of Cajal) with recurrent episodes of intestinal sub-occlusion. We describe a clinical setting and radiological features of CIPO in an 11-year-old girl with periodic relapses. Our attention was focused firstly on surgical causes, leading to a delay in the diagnosis; thus, is important detecting equivocal symptoms and considering the possible correlation to the CIPO for an early diagnosis and related prevention of acute episodes improving prognosis and quality of life of pediatric patients.
