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

aimTo present cases of recurred jejuno-jejunal intussusception and jejunal perforation due to melanoma. MATERIALS &

methodsCase 1: A 43-year-old male under treatment for malignant melanoma was presented with abdominal pain and distention. Ten centimeter intussuscepted jejunum was resected. Second exploration was done due to failure to pass gas and stool. The reintussusception was detected and resection of reintussuscepted jejunum was performed. Case 2: A 63-year-old male was presented with abdominal pain. Abdomen computed tomography showed free air in the abdomen suggesting intestinal perforations. Perforated area at 80 cm in the jejunum sutured.

conclusionWe present the seemingly first report of reintussusception of resected segment in a very short time. Surgeons should be aware of both intussusception and perforation in metastatic melanoma.
