Primary Peritonitis Due to Group A Streptococcus Successfully Treated with Intraperitoneal Drainage.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A 42-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of lower abdominal pain and diarrhea. Although the initial symptoms and imaging findings were similar to those of acute enteritis, blood and ascites cultures led to the diagnosis of primary peritonitis caused by group A Streptococcus. In many cases, the disease rapidly deteriorates, and laparotomy is performed for the early diagnosis and to reduce the number of bacteria in the abdominal cavity. In the present case, intraperitoneal drainage was effective for avoiding surgery. We suggest that intraperitoneal drainage is effective for the treatment of this disease.
