Perforated Blind Pouch: An Unusual Late Complication Following Lateral Anastomosis After a Right Hemicolectomy.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Blind loop syndrome (BLS) is a well-recognized delayed complication in small bowel strictures, stenosis, fistulas, diverticula, or post-gastrectomy afferent loop syndrome. However, due to its delayed presentation, BLS after side-to-side bowel anastomosis is inadequately reported. The vicious cycle of the blind loop is due to bacterial overgrowth, resulting in diarrhea, weight loss, malnutrition, and rarely mucosal erosion, bleeding, and perforation peritonitis. Diagnosis of BLS requires knowledge of previous surgery performed, a high level of clinical suspicion, and experienced radiological abilities. In this case report, we present the clinico-radiological profile of a 54-year-old diabetic patient with a perforated blind ileal pouch occurring four years after a right hemicolectomy with side-to-side ileo-transverse anastomosis.
