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

Intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL) is a rare disorder characterized by dilation and obstruction of the small bowel lymphatic ducts, resulting in malabsorptive diarrhea and edema. While the majority of IL is congenital and presents in infancy, secondary acquired IL rarely presents as a long-term sequela after abdominal or pelvic surgeries. We report an 18-year-old woman who underwent surgical resection of ovarian cancer with subsequent endoscopic and histologic evidence of duodenal IL. This case highlights the importance of increased endoscopic awareness for iatrogenic acquired IL in clinical practice.
