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

Pheochromocytomas can present with various symptoms. Nonspecific manifestations of pheochromocytoma include intestinal pseudo-obstruction and weight loss. Here, we present a case of pheochromocytoma in which prolonged intestinal pseudo-obstruction due to excess catecholamines was one of the factors leading to the development of a liver abscess. An 18-year-old male patient with a history of status epilepticus and severe intellectual disability was transferred to our hospital for a thorough examination of fever and constipation that had lasted for 2 months. When admitted to our hospital, he had fever, and his body mass index was 9.5 kg/m
