Emphysematous Gastritis: A Case Series on a Rare but Critical Gastrointestinal Condition.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Emphysematous gastritis (EG) is a rare and life-threatening condition characterized by gas-forming microorganisms causing gas to accumulate within the stomach wall. It has a high mortality rate and is associated with risk factors like gastroenteritis, alcohol use disorder, diabetes mellitus, renal failure, recent abdominal surgery, long-term corticosteroid use, and ingestion of corrosive agents. Diagnosis is challenging due to its rarity and nonspecific symptoms, including severe abdominal pain, coffee-ground emesis, fever, and signs of systemic infection. We present two cases of patients with signs and symptoms of EG, where prompt diagnosis and treatment were achieved, avoiding further complications. Surgical intervention was avoided due to the successful response to conservative treatment. These cases highlight the importance of early detection and intervention in improving patient outcomes and preventing complications associated with EG.
