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/Aims: Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO), characterized by dilated small or large intestine on CT, has a high postoperative recurrence rate. In contrast, focal hypoganglionosis with adult-onset megacolon (FHAM) generally shows a good postoperative prognosis. This study aims to evaluate the utility of cine-MRI in differentiating between these 2 diseases by assessing small bowel (SB) motility and its correlation with clinical outcomes. Methods: The clinical features and outcomes of 41 prospectively enrolled patients suspected of having CIPO who underwent cine-MRI were reviewed. Multi-slice cine-MRI was conducted. Results: Of 41 patients suspected of having CIPO, 17 showed SB dilatation on CT, while 24 did not. According to cine-MRI, 3 exhibited decreased SB motility, while 38 showed no motility reduction. Among the 17 patients with dilated SB on CT, only 3 demonstrated decreased SB motility on cine-MRI. By contrast, all patients with nondilated SB on CT exhibited normal SB motility on cine-MRI. Patients with decreased SB motility showed a higher rate of postoperative disease recurrence ( Conclusions: Cine-MRI is useful in assessing SB motility that cannot be detected on CT. Its usefulness extends to aiding surgical decision-making, particularly in differentiating between FHAM and CIPO.
