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

A spontaneous occurrence of cholesterol embolization syndrome causing small bowel obstruction and perforation is a highly scarce event. In this article, we report a case of spontaneous cholesterol embolism resulting in small bowel obstruction and perforation in a 52-year-old male with multiple cardiovascular and medical comorbidities. In our patient, the source was an eccentric left lateral atherosclerotic plaque from the abdominal aorta that was identified using computed tomography. A distal occlusion in numerous small intestinal arteries due to cholesterol embolism was confirmed on biopsy after surgical resection. (
