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

Gallbladder volvulus (GV) involves the rotation of the gallbladder along its axis, resulting in torsion. This pathology is rare, more commonly found in elderly females, but can occasionally occur in pediatric patients. Diagnosis is challenging due to often atypical symptoms, with imaging and laboratory findings typically nonspecific. Prompt surgical intervention is necessary when GV is suspected to prevent significant systemic illness. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has proven to be safe and effective in pediatric cases. In this report, we present a pediatric case of GV, initially misdiagnosed as viral-induced acalculous cholecystitis, which was effectively managed using laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
