Gastric Volvulus: A Delayed Surgical Complication After Debulking and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Advanced Ovarian Cancer.

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
Gastric volvulus in conjunction with diaphragmatic hernia is an uncommon but life-threatening presentation that is generally in association with hiatal hernia or diaphragmatic injuries. Diaphragmatic hernia with gastric volvulus can occur many years after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy despite initial diaphragm intactness, and should be suspected in this patient population when they present with upper gastrointestinal obstruction. An acute episode of gastric volvulus can have a mortality of 30% to 50%, hence the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. Surgical management remains the treatment of choice and can be an emergency in obstructive cases. We report the case of a 68-year-old woman presenting with signs and symptoms of acute upper gastrointestinal obstruction. Three years ago, the patient had undergone debulking surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis secondary to advanced ovarian cancer. A diagnosis of gastric volvulus was established. The pylorus was seen near the cardia on gastroscopy, and barium swallow showed stomach upside down and with a mirror image of normal anatomy suggestive of gastric volvulus. We opted for urgent laparotomy that revealed the presence of a rotated stomach adherent to the spleen and left diaphragm. After reduction, a diaphragmatic defect that was missed on the computed tomography scan was discovered and repaired, and the patient recovered uneventfully.
