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
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects but can lead to serious gastrointes complications. This report illustrates the management of an NSAID-induced penetrating gastric ulcer with subsequent postoperative hemorrhagic cholecystitis. A 68-year-old female with chronic NSAID use presented with epigastric pain and was diagnosed with a penetrating gastric ulcer extending into the retroperitoneum. The surgical management required a shift from a minimally invasive robotic-assisted approach to an open procedure due to unexpected intraoperative findings. The postoperative period was notable for the development of hemorrhagic cholecystitis that was managed with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, highlighting the role of interventional radiology in complex postoperative care. NSAID use significantly increases gastrointestinal risks, leading to complications such as ulcers that may penetrate into adjacent structures, including the retroperitoneum. The management of penetrating gastric ulcers typically involves complex surgical procedures, highlighted in this scenario by the necessity for an antrectomy followed by a Billroth II reconstruction to address the extensive damage and restore gastrointestinal continuity, which is essential for patient recovery. In this case, the development of hemorrhagic cholecystitis postoperatively was effectively managed with a percutaneous transhepatic biliary drain, demonstrating the importance of interventional radiology in managing postoperative complications and the need for a multidisciplinary approach. This case report elucidates the management of NSAID-induced penetrating gastric ulcer that extended into the retroperitoneum, necessitating an antrectomy with Billroth II reconstruction. A gastric ulcer is generally classified as "large" if it exceeds 2 centimeters in diameter. These ulcers pose greater risks of complications such as perforation, penetration into adjacent organs, bleeding, and obstruction, necessitating more complex and comprehensive management strategies. The postoperative complication of hemorrhagic cholecystitis was effectively managed via interventional radiology, highlighting the critical role of minimally invasive techniques in addressing severe postoperative complications.
