A rare case of benign pneumatosis intestinalis in Sjogren's syndrome.

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
Pneumatosis intestinalis (PI)-the presence of intramural bowel gas-is an uncommon radiological finding, the severity of which depends on the underlying pathological process, ranging from benign disease to life-threatening ischaemia and intra-abdominal sepsis. PI has been described in systemic sclerosis and mixed connective tissue disease; however, few cases have been reported in Sjogren's syndrome (SjS). The exact pathogenesis of PI in systemic connective tissue disorders is not fully understood and likely multifactorial. We have described a unique case of PI without evidence of peritonitis in a stable patient with long-standing SjS managed non-operatively. An awareness of such benign PI, particularly amongst patients with systemic connective tissue disease, is crucial for diagnostic accuracy and safe patient care, particularly in preventing unnecessary surgical intervention.
