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

Small bowel diaphragm disease is a rare condition that is characterized by the presence of diaphragm-like strictures that causes intermittent or complete small bowel obstruction. Most cases are asymptomatic until presented with severe abdominal pain due to small bowel obstruction or diagnosed during anemia workup as a cause of occult gastrointestinal bleeding. Small bowel diaphragm disease is usually associated with long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Here, we present the case of a 50-year-old male with no history of NSAID use who presented with abdominal pain and iron deficiency anemia. He was postoperatively diagnosed with idiopathic small bowel diaphragm disease.
