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

Splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) is a rare condition, and its spontaneous rupture is life-threatening. It usually occurs in patients with known risk factors such as pregnancy or portal hypertension. We report the case of a 29-year-old male with no prior medical history who presented with sudden abdominal pain and hemorrhagic shock. Contrast-enhanced CT angiography revealed massive hemoperitoneum due to spontaneous rupture of a splenic artery aneurysm. Despite emergency surgical management, the patient died. This case is important because it demonstrates that splenic artery aneurysm rupture can occur in young patients without classic risk factors, highlighting the need to consider this diagnosis in cases of unexplained hemorrhagic shock.
