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

Evisceration of the small intestine from the anus is a rare complication following rectal injury. In patients with recurrent rectal prolapse, delayed surgical intervention can lead to rectal wall thinning due to chronic ischemia, increasing the risk of rectal rupture and subsequent intrusion of the small bowel followed by antegrade intussusception. Since Bodie first described this condition in 1827, fewer than one hundred cases have been reported globally. This case involved a 78-year-old male with a 60-year history of untreated rectal prolapse. After a fall, his abdominal pressure increased abruptly, causing rectal rupture and intussusception of the small intestine through the anus. An emergency Hartmann procedure was performed, and the patient recovered well. This case underscores the need for early surgical intervention in chronic rectal prolapse to prevent severe complications. It also highlights the unique mechanism of rectal injury under external force, providing valuable insights for managing similar complex cases.
