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

Gastrointestinal (GI) duplication cysts present significant diagnostic and surgical challenges, particularly with complex anatomy. We report a 2-year-old male with chronic obstructive symptoms caused by a mixed-type jejunal duplication. While initial ultrasound was equivocal, contrast-enhanced computed tomography delineated a cystic mass on the mesenteric border, guiding surgical planning. Intraoperatively, a shared mesenteric blood supply with the native jejunum precluded complete resection. A parenchyma-sparing partial excision of the symptomatic, non-communicating portion was performed, preserving the fused communicating segment. Histology confirmed the diagnosis. The patient's recovery was uneventful, with complete symptom resolution at follow-up. This case illustrates that for complex GI duplications, a tailored, parenchyma-sparing resection is a safe and effective strategy when vascular integrity is at risk, shifting the clinical focus from acute management to the necessity of long-term surveillance for the retained segment.
