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 describe herein an autopsy case involving fatal hemorrhagic shock due to idiopathic sigmoid colonic intramural hematoma rupturing into the abdominal cavity. Antemortem computed tomography revealed a mass lesion in the sigmoid colon and a large amount of hemoperitoneum. On forensic autopsy, intramural hematoma of the sigmoid colon with ruptured serosa was identified, while the mucosa remained intact. Microscopically, hematomas were apparent, mainly in the muscularis propria. We diagnosed the cause of death as hemorrhagic shock due to idiopathic intramural hematoma of the sigmoid colon rupturing into the abdominal cavity. Although the patient had been receiving peritoneal dialysis, no relationship was identified between dialysis catheters and sigmoid colon intramural hematoma rupture. On computed tomography, the mass lesion was initially considered a submucosal neoplastic lesion or endometriotic lesion. Intramural hematoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis.
