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
backgroundPancreatic and duodenal-related complications after right colectomy carry a higher risk of mortality. CASE PRESENTATION: A 64-year-old woman underwent laparoscopic right colectomy for a laterally spreading tumor in the cecum. On postoperative day 10, she experienced sudden hematemesis. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen showed a large amount of hemorrhage in the stomach, but no obvious extravasation. In addition, free air was observed near the duodenal bulb. Despite blood transfusion, vital signs remained unstable and emergency surgery was performed. The abdomen was opened through midline incisions in the upper and lower abdomen. A fragile wall and perforation were observed at the border of the left side of the duodenal bulb and pancreas, with active bleeding observed from inside. As visualization of the bleeding point proved difficult, the duodenum was divided circumferentially to confirm the bleeding point and hemostasis was performed using 4-0 PDS. The left posterior wall of the duodenum was missing, exposing the pancreatic head. For reconstruction, the jejunum was elevated via the posterior colonic route and the duodenal segment and elevated jejunum were anastomosed in an end-to-side manner. Subsequently, gastrojejunal and Brown anastomoses were added. Drains were placed before and after the duodenojejunal anastomosis. Postoperative vital signs were stable and the patient was extubated on postoperative day 1. Follow-up contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen showed no active bleeding, and the patient was discharged home on postoperative day 21. As of 6 months postoperatively, the course of recovery has been uneventful.
conclusionsWe encountered a case of pancreaticoduodenal artery hemorrhage after laparoscopic right colectomy. Bleeding at this site can prove fatal, so treatment plans should be formulated according to the urgency of the situation.
