Spontaneously Resolving Pneumoperitoneum and Pneumomediastinum: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We present here an interesting case report of two patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum and iatrogenic pneumoperitoneum. The patients were assessed and queried following a chest X-ray abnormality and query based on the history of recent urological procedures on a background of awaiting gastro-oesophageal surgery at a tertiary centre respectively. Although these patients were successfully managed with the best supportive approach and periodic imaging review, it remains important to be aware that fatalities have been reported in the literature. We hope this case report will help those involved in the care of the patient to be aware of these conditions as differentials when history points towards episodes of coughing or recent surgical input.
