A Rare Case of Small Bowel Injury From an Industrial High-Pressure Water Jet.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Industrial high-pressure fluid injection injuries are rare causes of abdominal trauma. The spectrum of injury ranges from superficial skin abrasions to severe intra-abdominal injuries, including hollow viscus perforation and solid organ damage, which may be life-threatening if not promptly recognised and managed. Furthermore, this mechanism of injury does not clearly conform to traditional classifications of either penetrating or blunt abdominal trauma; rather, it represents a hybrid mechanism often known as a hydroblast injury. This poses challenges for clinicians in applying established management algorithms. This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion and performing serial abdominal examinations, which facilitated early surgical intervention and led to the identification of a small bowel injury caused by an industrial high-pressure water jet.
