Nontraumatic Acute Abdominal Pain in the Emergency Department: A Retrospective Study.
Article in International journal of applied & basic medical research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Introduction: Acute abdominal pain (AAP) constitutes a frequent presenting complaint in the emergency department (ED). Distinguishing between mild and potentially life-threatening cases requires a structured approach and effective triage. This study aimed to describe the main nontraumatic causes of AAP, assess urgency, and analyze case distribution by age and gender, as well as admission and discharge patterns. Patients and Methods: All records of adult patients presenting with abdominal pain between August and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The entire patient sample ( Results: From the total count of patients, Conclusion: A higher proportion of AAP cases was observed among females in our ED sample, with renal colic, NSAP, UTI, and biliary disorders being the most common diagnoses. A high discharge rate (75.9%) reflects that most AAP cases were non-emergent; however, careful triage remains essential, particularly in male patients due to their higher admission risk.
