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

Gallbladder volvulus is a rare and frequently underdiagnosed condition, particularly in elderly patients. This case demonstrates a 91-year-old female patient with a clinical presentation of cholecystitis, in which, during the laparoscopy, a gallbladder volvulus was revealed. A detorsion of the gallbladder and cholecystectomy were conducted laparoscopically. Besides minor postoperative complications, the patient was discharged home in the same condition as before surgery. This case highlights that surgical management should be considered in elderly patients with operable cholecystitis to reduce mortality.
