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

Pneumatosis intestinalis (PI) and portal venous gas (PVG) are pathological conditions suggesting serious underlying diseases such as intestinal ischemia, intestinal wall infarction, and necrotizing enterocolitis. Therefore, early detection, comprehensive management, and timely treatment of the underlying disease are important for improving outcomes. We experienced a case of a patient who developed gangrenous cholecystitis secondary to PI and PVG. In this case, it was suggested that gangrenous cholecystitis may have been induced by retrograde infection due to the proliferation of intestinal bacteria and increased intestinal pressure caused by the reduced intestinal peristalsis due to PI and PVG. Herein, we report the successful treatment of this case with a literature review.
