Intestinal obstruction due to idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis colitis: A case report.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Introduction: Idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis colitis (IMP) is a rare condition that impairs colonic venous blood return owing to mesenteric venous sclerosis and fibrosis. At present, many studies have suggested that long-term intake of Chinese herbal medicines is associated with its pathogenesis. IMP has no characteristic clinical manifestations, and most patients with IMP present with acute intestinal obstruction. As a rare disease, the etiology, pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and treatment of IMP are being explored and studied. Case Description: A 60-year-old Chinese male patient with IMP was admitted to our hospital for acute intestinal obstruction, received subtotal colectomy and ileostomy after 10 days of ineffective conservative treatment, and was discharged after postoperative supportive treatment for 1 month. Conclusion: There are many causes of intestinal obstruction, and we report a relatively rare one. After failure of conservative treatment, it is necessary to surgically resect part of the diseased bowel.
