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

Sharp foreign body ingestion may result in simple impaction to mucosal perforation along the gastrointestinal tract. We report a rare case of a 62-year-old woman with jujube ingestion, a fruit that contains sharp-edged seeds causing impaction in the esophagus. Contrast computed tomography (CT) confirmed the transverse lie of the seed at the esophageal wall with features of through-and-through perforation. Flexible endoscopy under local anaesthesia successfully retrieved the jujube seed, followed by application of endoscopic hemoclips for the esophageal perforation. The patient was discharged well within a few days with no fatal outcomes.
