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

Internal hernias are particularly difficult to diagnosis and should be considered in patients presenting with sudden, severe abdominal pain and symptoms of intestinal obstruction. Internal hernias carry a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Here, we present an unusual case of internal hernia through the foramen of Winslow of an ileoileal anastomosis created 25 years prior that was successfully diagnosed and operatively reduced via single-port laparoscopy with an optimal clinical outcome. Uniquely, the defect was closed using a ligamentum teres buttress to avoid undue tension at the foramen.
