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

Wilkie syndrome, or superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS), is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal obstruction that predominantly affects young patients with low body mass index and presents with nonspecific symptoms. We report the case of an 18-year-old female who underwent laparoscopic duodenojejunostomy after failure of conservative management. The patient achieved complete resolution of symptoms, and long-term endoscopic follow-up confirmed a well-healed duodenojejunal anastomosis. This report highlights the role of surgical management in refractory SMAS and provides the first long-term endoscopic documentation of the postoperative outcome, along with systematic review of the current literature.
