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

Gastrointestinal candidiasis is typically encountered in immunocompromised individuals. Small bowel perforation presenting in association with pancolitis in an immunocompetent patient is exceedingly rare. We report the case of a 67-year-old immunocompetent male patient who presented with acute abdomen and generalized peritonitis. Emergency exploratory laparotomy revealed a jejunal perforation 10 cm distal to the duodenojejunal flexure, which was managed with primary repair and an omental patch. The postoperative course was initially uneventful; however, the patient was readmitted with diarrhea and abdominal pain. Imaging revealed diffuse pancolitis with terminal ileal involvement. Histopathological examination of the jejunal perforation edge biopsy demonstrated fungal elements in the form of pseudohyphae and budding yeast forms consistent with
