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

We report the case of a 97-year-old male with recurrent gastric volvulus who was successfully treated with nasogastric tube-assisted endoscopic reduction followed by percutaneous endoscopy-assisted gastropexy with gastric wall fixation. The nasogastric tube facilitates endoscopic reduction by enhancing the procedure's efficiency. In contrast, percutaneous endoscopy-assisted gastropexy provides an effective, minimally invasive method to prevent the recurrence of gastric volvulus, even in patients with poor overall health. This case highlights the clinical utility of these combined approaches in managing gastric volvulus in elderly patients with significant comorbidities.
