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

backgroundSubmucosal hemorrhage of the esophagus is relatively rare and the course of this disease remains unclear. We report a case of this disease. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient was a 68-year-old man who visited a clinic complaining of sudden-onset epigastric and back pain. He had been taking warfarin and a statin due to non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, right subclavian artery stenosis, and chronic atrial fibrillation. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed esophageal submucosal hemorrhage. Detailed endoscopic examination was difficult because of the massive hemorrhage and progressive esophageal mucosal edema. He was transferred to our hospital due to progression of anemia. Fortunately, hemorrhagic anemia showed no progression with conservative fasting therapy after admission to our hospital. Esophageal mucosa over the submucosal hemorrhage detached and regenerative tissue was observed on endoscopic examination 1 week later.

conclusionsEsophageal submucosal hemorrhage should be included among the differential diagnoses for patients presenting with chest and back pain.
