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

A 66-year-old man with a history of diabetes and dilated cardiomyopathy underwent the implantation of a ventricular assist device (VAD) at the age of 62. He suffered from epigastralgia for a month and then visited our hospital with complaints of severe epigastralgia and hematemesis. A physical examination revealed abdominal distension without rigidity. Laboratory data showed severe systemic inflammation, multiple organ failure, and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Computed tomography showed multifocal thickness of the gastroduodenal wall with surrounding panniculitis, gas in a portal vein and a perigastric vein. Emergency esophago-gastro duodenoscopy (EGD) demonstrated a large erosion in the antrum of the stomach, and penetration surrounded by circumferentially ischemic mucosa in the second and third portions of the duodenum. Based on informed consent, conservative therapy was performed, and his condition improved enabling the start of oral intake on the 37th hospital day. However, 7 days later, there was a relapse of epigastralgia after a meal. Gastrointestinal series and EGD revealed a 10-mm-long pinhole-like stricture at the site. After laparoscopic gastro-jejunal bypass surgery, he has remained in a good condition for 2 years. We demonstrated a rare case of penetration due to severe ischemic duodenitis 4 years after VAD implantation.
