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

A 55-year-old man experienced nausea and vomiting after brushing his teeth. He experienced back pain after this episode and visited our emergency department. Chest computed tomography (CT) images revealed moderate pleural fluid accumulation and mild left pneumothorax. Thoracentesis showed black pleural effusion. Thoracic drainage included food debris with black pleural effusion, and gastroscopy revealed food debris and perforation of the lower esophagus. Esophageal perforation was surgically repaired using omental implantation and pleuroclysis. Given the high mortality rate associated with black pleural effusion, prompt diagnostic procedures and corresponding management are essential.
