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

Foreign body ingestions are commonly seen and are usually uneventful. Very rarely, ingested foreign bodies will cause perforation of the gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to peritonitis, abscesses or fistulation. This is the case of a patient with vague abdominal pain after voluntary ingestion of bleach and an ink pen. The ink pen was found lodged in the gastric antral wall on esophagogastroduodenoscopy. The foreign body spontaneously migrated into the gastric lumen and was successfully removed with endoscopy.
