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

backgroundAcute esophageal necrosis (AEN) is defined as a diffused black discoloration of the esophageal mucosa involving mainly the distal part of the esophagus. It is considered a rare clinical entity with a high mortality rate. The etiology of AEN is unknown, but it has been correlated to many causes such as malignancies, infections, and hemodynamics instability. Here, we report a case of a patient developing AEN a few days after kidney transplantation.

conclusionAEN is a critical condition that mandates early intervention. Identifying high-risk populations may aid in early anticipation and diagnosis. Patients with chronic kidney disease are at risk of atherosclerosis leading to a low flow state which is exacerbated during renal transplantation surgery, especially if the procedure was complicated with a drop in blood pressure.
