Spontaneous gastric perforation complicating acute laryngotracheobronchitis in an infant: a novel case report from Nepal.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pediatric spontaneous gastric perforation is a rarely encountered condition with poorly understood causal mechanisms. We present a novel case of a two-month-old female infant from Nepal who previously experienced Croup and subsequently developed severe abdominal distention and vomiting. Abdominal X-ray findings confirmed pneumoperitoneum, prompting immediate laparotomy. Intraoperative examination revealed a substantial perforation along the posterior stomach wall, specifically along the lesser curvature. The surgical intervention involved gastrorrhaphy and omentopexy using 3-0 Vicryl sutures, leading to an uneventful postoperative recovery. This case report highlights the critical importance of early and efficient management of spontaneous gastric perforations in infants, emphasizing the need for timely intervention to achieve favorable outcomes. Pediatric spontaneous gastric perforation remains a rare condition, and reporting such cases contributes to our understanding and management of this unusual pathology.
