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

Internal hernias are a rare condition and sometimes life-threatening, and they need an emergency exploratory laparotomy. Appendicectomy for chronic appendicitis is controversial. Without timely treatment, chronic appendicitis may develop into a ruptured appendix and an infection that spreads to other parts of the body, and other serious complications. Here we report the case of 48-year-old female who had intestinal ischemia secondary to internal hernia caused by the appendix adhering to the right ovary. Her medical history indicated a chronic, right lower abdominal pain for three years.
