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

backgroundColorectal foreign bodies are commonly encountered during surgery. They are frequently observed in men 20 to 90 years of age and have bimodal age distribution. Surgical management is necessary for cases of rectal perforation. However, surgical site infections are the most common complications after colorectal surgery. CASE SUMMARY: We discuss a case of rectal perforation in a patient who presented to our hospital 2 d after its occurrence. The perforation occurred as a result of the patient inserting a sex toy in his rectum. Severe peritonitis was attributable to delayed presentation.

conclusionVacuum-assisted closure was performed to treat the wound, which healed well after therapy. No complications were noted.
