Gastrointestinal Surgical Emergencies in the Neutropenic Immunocompromised Patient.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Surgeons encounter neutropenic patients through elective or emergency consultation with increasing regularity. As medical management continues to extend the lives of patients with benign hematologic diseases, hematologic malignancies, solid malignancies, or iatrogenic neutropenia, more patients are presenting with infectious complications caused and/or complicated by their neutropenia. This leaves surgeons in the difficult position of managing medically fragile patients with unusual presentations of common disease processes. These patients often fall outside of classical guidelines and treatment pathways. Many studies addressing these issues are retrospective and non-randomized. Here, we review common emergency gastrointestinal surgery scenarios and their management in the setting of a neutropenic patient. While biliary disease, appendicitis, anorectal disease, and perforations will be covered in detail, an extensive appreciation of a patient's medical or oncologic disease course and appropriate utilization of consultants such as interventional radiology, gastroenterology, and hematology is often necessary.
