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

introduction and importanceNowadays the majority of appendectomies are undertaken laparoscopically. The associated per and postoperative complications are well established and known. However, some rare postoperative complications continue to be reported such as small bowel volvulus. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of 44-year-old women who developed a small bowel obstruction from acute small bowel volvulus due to early postoperative flanges five days after a laparoscopic appendectomy. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Laparoscopy is associated with less adherences and morbidity however we must be careful in post operative course. Mechanical obstruction can happen even with laparoscopy procedure.

conclusionOcclusion earlier after surgery even with laparoscopy procedure must be explored. Volvulus can be incriminated.
