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

Isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (ISMAD) is rare, with symptoms ranging from asymptomatic to acute intestinal ischemia. Risk factors for ISMAD include hypertension, atherosclerosis, abnormal elastic fibers, and pregnancy. In the present case, blunt trauma, which has not been previously reported, was suggested as a risk factor. A 46-year-old man was brought to the emergency room after he was found unconscious after a motor vehicle collision. At presentation, he had no abdominal symptoms; however, on the fourth day of admission, he presented with severe abdominal pain and vomiting. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed an ISMAD with associated intestinal ischemia and necrosis; hence, emergency surgery was performed. Herein, we report a case of ISMAD caused by blunt abdominal trauma.
