Late Presentation of Peritonitis Post Jejunal Perforation Due to Flank Stab Wound.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Abdominal trauma injuries are caused by many mechanisms including blunt and penetrating trauma injuries. Penetrating injuries are far more common than blunt injuries. Subsequently, the most affected organ during such injuries is small intestine perforations. As far as we know, there were no cases reported before about jejunal injury due to penetrating trauma. We present a case of a 20-year-old male with a stab wound injury who was initially stable in the emergency department (ED). After a set of investigations were done, the patient was discharged home. Yet, the patient presented again with late signs of peritonitis. Imaging was done and showed pneumoperitoneum. Thereafter, the patient was rushed to the operation room (OR) where the jejunal repair was performed. ED physicians must be vigilant regarding any signs of deterioration in penetrating trauma patients and should provide clear instructions to patients regarding any symptoms of the acute abdomen before any discharge.
