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

Simultaneous occurrence of pneumothorax and pneumoperitoneum is a rare event, usually related to traumas or surgical procedures involving the diaphragm. However, clinicians should be aware of the possible onset of these two clinical conditions even in patients without a recent clinical history that can clearly explain them. Cross-sectional imaging techniques are of great importance, providing crucial information about the patient's clinical status and guiding the following patient management. This work describes a unique case of a sudden occurrence of simultaneous pneumothorax and pneumoperitoneum in a previous asymptomatic man with a solely clinical history of minor trauma during childhood, evaluated through a multimodality imaging approach and treated with video-assisted thoracoscopy surgery.
