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

Small-bowel diverticulosis is relatively common, but there is no set treatment strategy for duodenal diverticulitis with stone impaction. A woman aged in her 70s presented with a chief complaint of abdominal pain, and she had been reconstructed by the Roux-en-Y method after total gastrectomy. We performed an enhanced computed tomography which revealed edematous wall thickening of the duodenum. We diagnosed her with duodenal diverticulitis and treated them with antibiotics but her disease was not cured, we therefore attempted endoscopic stone removal as a nonoperative treatment. After stone removal with a nonoperative procedure, when we contrasted the duodenal papillary diverticulum, it was found to form a fistula on the other side, and the successful treatment made her discharged on the 17th day. The duodenal diverticulitis with calculus is extremely rare, and there is no report to treat it using double-balloon endoscopy, therefore we report this case with a literature review.
