A fish out of the Meckel diverticulum, foreign body bowel perforation: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2026. 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
Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract, caused by incomplete obliteration of the omphalomesenteric duct during the seventh week of gestation, and occurs in up to 4% of the general population. Most patients are asymptomatic; however, in a few cases, patients present with gastrointestinal bleeding and intestinal obstruction. Perforation of the diverticulum due to a foreign body is a very rare complication since most ingested foreign bodies may pass through the gastrointestinal tract without consequences. We present the unusual case of a 73-year-old female who inadvertently ingested a fishbone that lodged and perforated a Meckel diverticulum. After surgery, the patient fully recovered.
