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

We report a case of intraperitoneal bladder rupture in a 24-year-old man who was struck by a motorcycle. Initial contrast-enhanced CT scan shortly after presentation to our emergency department demonstrated simple free fluid within the upper abdomen and pelvis. Delayed CT scan of the pelvis showed contrast extravasation into the perineal cavity. CT cystography showed rupture of the bladder dome with active contrast extravasation. This case illustrates that intraperitoneal bladder rupture should be considered as an etiology for otherwise unexplained ascites after blunt abdominal trauma. Delayed CT and CT cystography should be considered for further evaluation.
