Hemodynamic Collapse and Hidden Pathology: A Case of Perforated Duodenal Diverticulum Identified During Trauma Laparotomy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Duodenal diverticula are rare extraluminal sac-like protrusions of the duodenal wall. Perforation of the diverticula is a life-threatening but uncommon complication, particularly following blunt abdominal trauma. We present the case of an 82-year-old woman who sustained blunt abdominal trauma after being struck by a motor vehicle, resulting in perforation of a duodenal diverticulum. She was hemodynamically unstable on arrival, necessitating emergent exploratory laparotomy during which a stapled diverticulectomy was performed. This case highlights the rarity of traumatic perforation of duodenal diverticula and the challenges of diagnosing and managing such injuries in the acute setting. It also underscores the importance of flexible and timely surgical intervention, particularly when preoperative imaging is unavailable.
