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

Portal hypertension can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract, including the duodenum. Portal hypertensive duodenopathy may occur relatively rare in patients with portal hypertension secondary to cirrhosis or extrahepatic portal venous obstruction. We report the case of a 63-years-old female patient with cirrhosis who underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Multiple small duodenal polyps (2-3 mm) were found. The histopathologic examination of the duodenal biopsy specimen revealed a polypoid duodenal mucosa, with preserved villous architecture, with focal gastric foveolar metaplasia and numerous ectatic capillaries in lamina propria. The polypoid lesions found in the duodenum are a consequence of portal hypertension. The presence of one or several polyps in the duodenum of a patient with portal hypertension, with specific histological findings (dilated mucosal capillaries, no dysplasia) is diagnostic of duodenal polyp/polyposis in the context of portal hypertension.
