Chronic intentional chicken bone ingestion mimicking inflammatory bowel disease.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ingestion of food by-products, such as peach pits, chicken bones and fish bones, may lead to intestinal complications. The ingestion of the foreign body is often acute and non-intentional. Acute and life-threatening complications include intestinal perforation or obstruction. Sharp-pointed objects are associated with an estimated 35% rate of complications within the gastrointestinal tract prior to passage and require prompt removal. Endoscopic retrieval is often recommended if foreign objects have not transited beyond the proximal duodenum. We present a unique case of a previously healthy 23-year-old male suffering months of abdominal pain. While the initial presentation and imaging were suspicious for Crohn's disease, the endoscopic findings were unexpected. Numerous chicken bone fragments were clustered in the caecum and in the terminal ileum. The distal terminal ileum was edematous and ulcerated. Subsequent patient history revealed years of chronic and intentional foreign body consumption with recent onset of abdominal pain.
