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

This case report details a 39-year-old woman with a history of endometriosis who presented with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and nausea, leading to a diagnosis of intestinal perforation caused by endometriosis. The patient underwent emergency surgery to resect the perforated bowel and an adjacent mass. Pathology confirmed the presence of endometrial tissue within the intestinal wall. This case underscores the importance of considering endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain, particularly in women with a history of the disease. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for managing this potentially life-threatening complication.
