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

Colonic perforation is prevalent in instances of abdominal trauma and is typically associated with anterior abdominal wall injury. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are essential to enhance patient outcomes. Delayed recognition of colonic perforation can result in severe complications, including peritonitis and sepsis. Diagnostic imaging, such as computed tomography, plays a critical role in determining the extent of injury and informing treatment decisions. This case report presents an instance in which a 16-year-old boy was grasped from behind and rotated laterally on both sides, resulting in multiple colonic perforations without any external abdominal injury. The child's life was saved by promptly performing surgery to repair the intestinal perforation and subsequently administering peritoneal wash. The boy remained under observation until his discharge from the hospital and attended all routine follow-up appointments. The young adolescent is now living a healthy and normal life. The presence of traumatic colon perforation without any visible external injury to the anterior abdominal wall makes this case unusual.
