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

Cecal ischemia following endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is an exceptionally rare complication. To our knowledge, isolated cecal ischemia requiring major resection has not been previously documented as a distinct case report in the PubMed-indexed English-language literature. Here, we present the case of a 67-year-old male who underwent EVAR for an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). After stent-graft deployment, he had a patent superior mesenteric artery. He was discharged home on postoperative day 1. On postoperative day 2, he presented to an outside hospital with groin and abdominal pain, and imaging revealed cecal pneumatosis. He underwent emergent exploratory laparotomy and ileocecectomy with primary anastomosis. Pathology demonstrated transmural ischemic colitis.
