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

Situs inversus totalis (SIT) develops as a result of the embryological developmental anomaly. Managing this condition surgically is challenging as the anatomy will be mirror-imaged. A 42-year-old male had metal shrapnel broken loose from a hammer-head metal piece and pierced into his upper abdomen. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed SIT with evidence of solid foreign body artefacts which were seen piercing through segment VIII of the liver and the anterior gastric wall. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a moderate amount of haemoperitoneum and a single perforation at the upper body of the stomach that was confirmed by on-table-endoscopy. The perforation was repaired with a modified Graham patch and the liver injury had stopped bleeding intraoperatively. The challenges arose during laparotomy assessment and endoscopic assessment due to inversed anatomy.
