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

Congenital malrotation is a pathology nearly exclusive to the infant population. In the rare instance when it is diagnosed in an adult, it is typically associated with a longstanding history of gastrointestinal symptoms. Unfortunately, this unique presentation in an unexpected population has the potential to be confounding, leading to delayed or mismanaged care. Here, we describe an intriguing case of congenital malrotation complicated by midgut volvulus in a 68-year-old woman. Even more curious, the patient did not have a medical history plagued by abdominal complaints. Careful, comprehensive evaluation yielded appropriate surgical management via Ladd's procedure and right hemicolectomy in this complex patient.
