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

The acute abdomen is characterized by acute abdominal pain with defensive muscular tension, can be triggered by a variety of diseases and sometimes represents a life-threatening condition. After clinical inspection, in most cases dedicated imaging should be performed immediately. The frequently causal appendicitis and cholecystitis can mostly be diagnosed with ultrasound. In other cases with unclear ultrasound findings or unclear severe symptoms, computer tomography (CT) is usually necessary without delay. In contrast, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is predominantly indicated in pregnant women and children with unclear ultrasound findings. Thus, the radiologist is an important gatekeeper in the diagnostics of acute abdomen. The radiologist should therefore be familiar with the correct imaging indications, the frequent and rare causes as well as the corresponding morphological imaging characteristics.
