Mediastinitis secondary to esophageal rupture; A case of Boerhaave syndrome.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Boerhaave syndrome is caused by spontaneous, vertical tears, which are most commonly seen in the distal esophagus. Boerhaave syndrome may develop after vomiting, severe cough, blunt trauma, and difficulty swallowing. In our study, we aimed to present a 66-year-old male who developed mediastinitis secondary to Boerhaave syndrome and was admitted to the emergency department of a secondary-level public hospital. In our case, despite early exploration, esophageal repair, mediastinal debridement, and subsequent esophageal stent application to the perforation, the condition was mortal. In this rare syndrome, surgical repair to the esophagus can be done within the first 24-48 h.
