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

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of surgical treatment in adult and pediatric patients with post-corrosive gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) in Yemen. Patients and methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at Al-Thawra Modern General Hospital (TMGH), from January 1, 2019 to January 31, 2023. The study involved 77 patients, comprising both adults and children, who were admitted for surgical treatment of post-corrosive GOO. Data were collected from medical records, patient interviews, and follow-up visits. Results: Among the 77 patients, 77% ( Conclusion: Corrosive injuries, particularly in the pediatric population, pose a significant issue in Yemen due to the unsafe storage of sulfuric acid. It is recommended to conduct early surgical interventions within 4 weeks after ingestion to prevent weight loss and to reduce prolonged hospitalization. Further research and interventions are needed to prevent such injuries, improve public awareness, and regulate the sale and storage of corrosive substances.
