A Challenge Called Ogilvie´s Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Ogilvie´s syndrome is a colonic dilation without any existing mechanical obstruction. The risk factors that cause it are not completely understood, but if untreated, the distension can result in rupture or ischaemic bowel perforation. Additionally, the existing guidelines do not agree with each other about the next steps if conservative treatment fails. We report the case of a 71-year-old woman in whom Ogilvie´s syndrome was particularly difficult to manage, and with it, we try to add clinical data to a field with scarce evidence.
