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

Peutz-Jeghar syndrome (PJS) is an inherited condition that puts people at an increased risk for developing hamarotmatous polyps in the digestive tract as well as cancers of the breast, colon, rectum, pancreas, stomach, testicles, ovaries, lung and cervix. With typical presentation, majority cases of PJS can be diagnosed in childhood. PJS is inherited by mutation in the STK II gene, also known as LKB1 gene. We describe the case of a 14-year-old male who presented to us with recurrent abdominal pain, vomiting and weight loss associated with growth failure. Classic melanin spots were present on lips and buccal mucosa. Diagnosis of PJS was established via clinical history, examination, CT scan, and endoscopy revealing the need for laparotomy for bowel obstruction secondary to chronic intermittent intussusception, enterotomy for small polyps. Polyp histopathology was consistent with hamartomatous polyps of PJS.
