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

Internal herniation through the foramen of Winslow is one of the rarest types of hernia. As signs and symptoms can be quite generalized, prompt identification can prove difficult, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The majority of reported cases of foramen of Winslow herniation result in obstruction of either the small or large bowel requiring operative intervention. As they are so rare, there is no established treatment algorithm for foramen of Winslow hernias. We present here a unique case of cecal herniation through the foramen of Winslow resulting in biliary compression and acute cholecystitis without bowel obstruction that was managed with laparoscopic cholecystectomy and right hemicolectomy.
