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

A 73-year-old man presented with nausea, abdominal discomfort, and distention persisting for the past five days. He had previously been diagnosed with stage III peripheral CD4+ T cell lymphoma and had initiated chemotherapy comprising vincristine two weeks prior to presentation. An evaluation revealed diffuse colon distention and pneumatosis intestinalis without mechanical obstruction, consistent with acute colonic pseudo-obstruction. The patient underwent surgical intervention and was subsequently admitted to the Intensive Care Unit due to distributive shock. Vincristine-induced ileus followed by intestinal pseudo-obstruction was suspected to be the underlying cause after excluding alternative causative factors.
