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

Colonoscopy is a widely used examination for colonic diseases with low risk. Hemoperitoneum due to injury of transverse mesocolon is an extremely rare but potentially lethal complication. We present a case of an elderly woman who complained of continuous abdominal pain after a colonoscopy, with progressive anemia. An emergency exploratory laparoscopy revealed a laceration of the transverse mesocolon. The underlying mechanism is unclear due to its rarity. Old age, atherosclerotic disease, the long operating time of colonoscopy, and manual compression on the abdomen during the procedure may be risk factors for transverse mesenteric laceration during colonoscopy.
