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

Background: Traumatic pancreatic injury is associated with high morbidity and mortality. We present a rare case of penetrating pancreatic injury caused by a knife. Case presentation: A 57-year-old man who stabbed himself in the abdomen during a suicide attempt presented to our hospital. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed free air in the abdomen, and penetrating pancreatic injury was suspected. Emergency laparotomy was performed. Perforation of the stomach and penetrating injury to the pancreas were observed. The gastric perforation was repaired. Due to the fact that no obvious bleeding or leakage of pancreatic juice was observed, pancreatic repair was not performed. The endoscopic retrograde pancreatography after the operation revealed no obvious injury to the main pancreatic duct. To prevent pancreatic fistula, a stent was placed in the main pancreatic duct, after which the fistula improved. Conclusion: We present a rare case of penetrating pancreatic injury, which was treated by surgery and endoscopic pancreatic stenting.
