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

introductionBacterial translocation (BT) followed by bacteremia is usually managed with antibiotics, but some cases remain refractory. Herein, we report an immunocompromised patient with bacteremia due to the translocation of CASE PRESENTATION: A 69-year-old woman with prior low anterior resection for rectal cancer developed adhesive intestinal obstruction during steroid treatment for suspected pyoderma gangrenosum. She progressed to septic shock despite antibiotics. CT revealed an edematous, thickened colon, suggesting ischemia or necrotizing colitis. An urgent laparotomy revealed no necrosis. The markedly edematous right colon was resected, with the creation of an ileostomy and a mucous fistula. Blood and colonic wall cultures both yielded

conclusionsIntestinal resection serving as the portal of entry for BT should be considered in patients unresponsive to conservative management.
