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

Small bowel bleeds, while uncommon, are often challenging with regard to diagnosis and therapeutic intervention. This is primarily due to their occult nature, the location offending lesions and limitations of current technology used to assess them. This review highlights two patients who presented with signs and symptoms of a small bowel bleed, where initial diagnostic workups were inconclusive, and intraoperative enteroscopy served a diagnostic and therapeutic role. We discuss the current literature on intraoperative endoscopy and propose an algorithm that introduces intraoperative enteroscopy earlier as a viable curative option, particularly in a rural setting. This case series proposes considerations for earlier introduction of intraoperative enteroscopy for diagnosis and treatment of small bowel bleeds.
