Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is a rare disease in which the third part of the duodenum between the SMA and the abdominal aorta is compressed, leading to small bowel obstruction. Treatment is usually conservative, such as parenteral and nasojejunal nutrition. The pathophysiology includes loss of the retroperitoneal fat layer and subsequent duodenal compression. We present a 53-year-old malnourished female patient who came with complaints of vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, and distension for four days. This article highlights the diagnostic challenges associated with SMA syndrome and emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and intervention.
