Perianal abscess due to a long fish bone: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Few articles have reported cases of perianal abscess due to ingested foreign bodies. Herein, we report a case of perianal abscess due to a long fish bone. A 72-year-old man who was toothless and wore a denture had a chief complaint of anal pain. His left-side buttock had swelling and redness. Computed tomography revealed a perianal abscess on his left-side buttock and high-intensity linear structure in the abscess cavity. We made a diagnosis of perianal abscess due to a fish bone and performed an emergency operation. We opened the abscess cavity and removed the 5 cm fish bone from the cavity. After drainage of the abscess cavity and antibiotic administration, he was discharged from our hospital on day 8. A long fish bone could cause perianal abscesses. Rapid diagnosis and ensuring fish bone removal are important to prevent sepsis.
