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

Background: This study presents the initial case of phlegmonous enteritis following endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a rare and potentially fatal complication. Additionally, a comprehensive review of relevant literature is provided. Case report: A 66-year-old female patient, diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and thrombocytopenia, underwent ESD to address a laterally spreading tumor located in the ascending colon. After the procedure, the patient manifested abdominal pain and a high fever, was diagnosed with peritonitis, necessitating an emergency exploratory laparotomy and right hemicolectomy. Subsequent histological examination indicated a significant presence of neutrophil infiltration across all layers of the intestines. The ascites culture yielded the growth of Literature review: A search was conducted in the PubMed database to identify case reports conforming to the definition of phlegmonous enteritis proposed by Rokitansky et al. We retrieved about 30 studies regarding phlegmonous enteritis from 1951 to 2022, with around 39 cases. Among these, only 28 patients had comprehensive medical data available. Subsequently, an examination of the literature was undertaken to explore the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of phlegmonous enteritis. Conclusion: The possibility of phlegmonous enteritis should be taken into consideration in cases of unexplained acute abdomen, particularly in patients with compromised immunity, in order to provide active surgical and antibiotic interventions.
