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

Internal herniation is a protrusion of the bowel limited to the abdominal cavity. This pathology is rare and difficult to diagnose due to a wide array of symptoms that may manifest. Internal hernias have the potential to affect surrounding organs such as the stomach and adjacent bowel due to the compressive force of the protruding bowel. The effects of internal herniation commonly present in one of two ways: acute obstruction which requires emergent intervention and subacute, vague symptoms that are difficult to diagnose. This case presents the findings of a post-mortem dissection of a 92-year-old willed body donor. Dissection of the abdominal cavity revealed a large internal hernia of the transverse colon that communicated superiorly posterior to the stomach. As a result of the hernia, the stomach in this patient had a stricture of the gastric body. We assert that this stricture was formed over an extended period of time due to the lack of diagnosis and treatment of the internal hernia.
