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

Malignant Small Bowel Obstruction (MSBO) is a debilitating complication of intra-abdominal malignancies, characterized by symptoms such as intractable nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Surgical intervention may become necessary for symptom management if conservative measures fail, although it carries a significant risk of postoperative morbidity. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided enterocolostomy is an emerging alternative for palliative management of MSBO when other surgical or endoscopic interventions are not feasible or have failed. We present a case of a 50-year-old woman with MSBO secondary to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of cervix who required the placement of a luminal colonic stent in the sigmoid colon before undergoing endoscopic ultrasound-guided enterocolostomy.
