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

A 57-year-old man was diagnosed with peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis 2 months after surgery for tunnel infection caused by Mycobacteroides abscessus (M. abscessus). The patient was treated with multiple antibiotics, and the cell count in the PD effluent decreased. However, the patient experienced abdominal pain and developed hiccups. Computed tomography revealed an encapsulated fluid collection, indicating intra-abdominal abscess (IAA) formation. Percutaneous drainage was performed to treat IAA, and the catheter was removed. This case suggests that PD-associated peritonitis caused by M. abscessus can lead to IAA formation. If symptoms persist even after a favorable course of peritonitis, IAA should be suspected.
