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

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced colonic diaphragm disease is an uncommon yet significant cause of gastrointestinal symptoms. We present a case of a 51-year-old male with chronic NSAID use who developed abdominal pain, weight loss, and gastrointestinal bleeding. Imaging and endoscopy revealed a short, benign-appearing stricture in the ascending colon consistent with diaphragm disease. The patient required multiple endoscopic interventions, including lumen-apposing metal stent placement and balloon dilation, to relieve the obstruction. This case underscores the importance of recognizing NSAID-induced colonic pathology and highlights the role of advanced endoscopic techniques in managing complex strictures.
