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

Delayed anastomotic submucosal abscess is a rare complication of rectal tumor resection. A submucosal tumor-like lesion near the anastomotic site was detected in a 57-year-old woman, and pus and sutures were found through spontaneously formed fistulas. Endoscopic ultrasound confirmed the presence of hyperechoic pus flowing out from the fistulas on compression of the lesion. The patient recovered well without surgery. This case indicates that submucosal abscess should be taken into consideration if suspected submucosal tumor-like lesions are detected after rectal surgery. Endoscopic drainage combined with antibiotic treatment may be an effective strategy for limited postoperative anastomotic abscess.
