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

Background: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is an infectious condition characterizing the presence of bacterial infection in the peritoneal fluid with no apparent source of infection within the abdomen. It is extremely rare for patients with malnutrition after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery to develop SBP. This is the first ever case reported case of SBP resulting from intestinal barrier compromise in a patient with colorectal cancer with malnutrition. Case summary: A 72-year-old woman with malnutrition was diagnosed with CRC, and following brief nutritional support, she underwent the laparoscopic-assisted radical right hemicolectomy. The patient was then diagnosed with peritonitis after the operation. An emergency laparotomy was performed, and the patient was finally diagnosed with SBP. The patient ultimately recovered following a series of appropriate postoperative supportive treatments. Conclusion: This case highlights the poor outcomes of short preoperative nutritional therapy in CRC patients with malnutrition. Further studies should investigate the role of the intestinal barrier function in the recovery of patients with CRC after surgery.
