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

Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a potentially fatal infection that can lead to sepsis and shock. Among the various causes of PLA, ingestion of foreign bodies such as fish bones is relatively rare. Unless there are specific symptoms such as painful swallowing, patients rarely remember having ingested foreign bodies, making it often difficult to identify the cause of PLA. In addition, the treatment strategy and perspectives for PLA caused by foreign bodies are controversial. Herein, we present a successful case of multidisciplinary treatment for sepsis due to a PLA caused by a fish bone with a literature review.
