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

While nasogastric intubation is a commonplace procedure characterized by its utility in enteral feeding and gastrointestinal decompression, instances of unexpected complications are relatively infrequent. Herein, we describe an unusual and rare complication, knot formation, that surfaced during routine patient care. This unique case prompts a re-evaluation of the potential complications associated with nasogastric tube insertion and offers insights into the challenges faced in its management. Through this report, we aim to contribute to the understanding of rare complications in enteral feeding practices.
