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

Cecal volvulus is a rare and life-threatening cause of intestinal obstruction with multiple risk factors including prior abdominal surgery and cecal hypermobility. Although its incidence has been reported after common procedures such as cholecystectomy and appendectomy, it has not been well studied after laparoscopy, especially in gynecological surgeries. If untreated, a cecal volvulus can result in serious complications such as intestinal strangulation, necrosis, or perforation. Therefore, early identification of risk factors and intervention is important in prevention of these sequelae. Here, we report a case of cecal volvulus in a patient with endometrial carcinoma after a staging robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy and the risk factors that may have led to her complication.
