Cervical cord injury complicated by acute mesenteric ischemia.

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
Acute mesenteric ischemia is a rare, life-threatening complication of cervical cord injury. This case report emphasized the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment of this complication. A 60-year old Japanese man with no co-morbidities was diagnosed as a C2 cervical cord injury and traumatic brain injury after a fall-down trauma. He was admitted to the intensive care unit after cord decompression surgery. Nine days later, he presented tachycardia and hypotension. Ultrasound showed dilated intestines and ascites. Intestinal ischemia was suspected based on the contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan. We performed prompt surgical resection of a broad part of the small intestines. The ischemic region of the intestines was segmental and the cause was attributed to a non-occlusive mechanism. Acute mesenteric ischemia can be fatal and a delay in diagnosis leads to poor outcomes. We focus on predisposing factors in patients with cervical cord injuries and how to prevent this serious diagnosis.
