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

backgroundSuperior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula (SMAVF) is a very rare disease and mainly manifests as abdominal pain, diarrhea, anorexia, and other portal hypertension symptoms. The diagnosis of the disease mainly relies on abdominal enhanced CT+3D reconstruction or digital subtraction angiography, and the treatment is mainly vascular interventional fistula occlusion. CASE SUMMARY: a 17-year-old female with a history of abdominal trauma and surgery was admitted to our hospital for diarrhea and abdominal distension. The patient was diagnosed with a superior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula after abdominal enhanced CT + 3D reconstruction. The patient was satisfied with the results after the superior mesenteric artery angiography + covered stent implantation. No discomfort symptoms occurred during the two-year follow-up.

conclusionA history of abdominal trauma or surgery and clinical manifestations in combination with a radiological analysis are important indicators in the diagnosis of SMAVF. Interventional therapy is the preferred treatment.
