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

Aortoenteric fistula is a rare condition that can be primary or secondary. The primary type is less common than the secondary. The secondary aortoenteric fistula is an uncommon fatal complication after reconstructive surgery for an aortic aneurysm or other aortic diseases. Here we present a case of a 59-year-old man who presented to our emergency department with sudden onset of massive hematemesis. Imaging studies were done and the patient was diagnosed to have aortoesophageal fistula. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed an intraluminal bulge in the posterior wall of the esophagus with an ulcer and hematoma. The patient was planned for emergency surgical intervention, but the patient had recurrent bouts of hematemesis and, unfortunately, expired. Hence patients presenting with massive hematemesis, aortoenteric fistula can be the underlying cause, and all surgeons should be aware of such conditions and the need for emergent surgical intervention.
