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: Case summary: This case report describes an unusual presentation of ascariasis in a 41-year-old male, with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms: abdominal pain, bloating, heartburn, and alternating diarrhea and constipation, which led to a misdiagnosis of chronic gastritis initially. Finally, multiple colon polyps were detected by colonoscopy. Histopathological examination of the polyps unexpectedly revealed Conclusion: This case highlight the importance of considering parasitic infections in patients with atypical gastrointestinal symptoms, even in the absence of typical risk factors.
