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

Epigastric abdominal pain is a common indication for consultation. In the majority of cases, medical history, clinical examination and routine biological exams allow for an easy diagnosis. Sometimes the symptomatology is unusual, in which case it is essential to perform a complete clinical examination and to use various imaging techniques to search for eventual atypical causes. Membranous obstruction of inferior vena cava is a rare cause of such a phenomenon. We describe a Budd-Chiari syndrome caused by membranous obstruction of inferior vena cava in a 66-year-old woman with no medical history as a rare cause of epigastric abdominal pain. We will describe this clinical experience in the light of the literature and point out the contribution of radiological imaging in the diagnosis of this rare pathology.
