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

Rectal necrosis represents the extreme progression of ischemic proctitis. Given the unique blood supply of the rectum, which features an extensive collateral circulation, cases of rectal necrosis are extremely rare, accounting for 2%-5% of the ischemic colitis cases. The etiology and pathogenesis of rectal necrosis encompass acute vascular occlusion, severe vascular diseases, low blood flow states, and factors such as radiotherapy, vasculitis, and mesenteric venous myointimal hyperplasia. Herein, we report a rare case of perirectal abscess complicated by rectal necrosis at the Anorectal Surgery Department of Bao'an Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in Shenzhen. The patient underwent a one-stage incision and drainage for a rectal abscess, followed by sigmoid colostomy and a two-stage reversal of the sigmoid colostomy; all procedures were performed through multidisciplinary collaboration. The surgical outcome was favorable after a 6-month follow-up.
