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

We present a case of bowel obstruction secondary to intussusception in a pregnant patient with a remote history of Roux-en-Y bypass. This patient presented with a one-day history of abrupt onset epigastric abdominal pain with associated nausea, emesis, and intolerance to oral intake. She was taken for an exploratory laparotomy after imaging suggested an internal hernia and a mass consistent with an intussusception was identified and resected. The patient later underwent a scheduled cesarean section at 38 weeks. Though bariatric surgery has been shown to reduce the risk of various conditions in pregnancy, the risk of developing complications, such as intussusception, should be considered when counseling female patients interested in bariatric surgery who may wish to become pregnant in the future. Additionally, pregnant patients with a history of bariatric surgery who present with acute abdominal pain should receive an urgent medical and surgical evaluation to rule out ischemic internal hernia or intussusception.
