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 herein report a case of an idiopathic intramural hematoma in the gastric wall that presented with symptoms of anemia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor-like lesion on the anterior gastric wall below the gastric fundus. Noncontrast-enhanced ultrasonography showed an anechoic area with indistinct boundaries mainly located within the submucosal layer in the gastric wall, and the lesion showed no contrast enhancement on contrast-enhanced ultrasonography. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the above-mentioned ultrasonographic imaging findings, a final diagnosis of idiopathic intramural gastric hematoma was made. The patient was treated conservatively, and changes in the size and internal ultrasonographic characteristics of the mass were followed up by ultrasonography. Six months later, esophagogastroduodenoscopy confirmed that the mass had disappeared.
