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

backgroundRectus sheath hematoma is a rare presentation often associated with abdominal trauma and anticoagulant therapy. Here, we present a patient with severe rectus sheath hematoma accompanied by nephrotic syndrome who achieved significant clinical improvement without the need for invasive treatment. CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old Japanese woman was referred to our hospital for the treatment of nephrotic syndrome. She was receiving steroid and anticoagulant therapy. Then she had abdominal pain and she was diagnosed with spontaneous rectus sheath hematoma by abdominal computed tomography. She received transfusion and was managed conservatively with bed rest, which led to improvement in abdominal pain.

conclusionDespite the absence of trauma history, rectus sheath hematoma should be considered in patients at risk of vascular failure, including those receiving anticoagulant or steroid therapy, those who are elderly, and those with nephrotic syndrome.
