Ileocecal intussusception caused by lung cancer metastasis.
Article in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Intussusception is a rare clinical finding in adults. Most cases occur in the distal small bowel or large intestine. We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with known non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who presented with acute abdomen and ileus-like symptoms. Abdominal computed tomography suggested ileocecal intussusception. The patient underwent right hemicolectomy and the histopathological workup showed ileal NSCLC metastasis as the lead lesion of intussusception. The classic triad of cramping abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea and a palpable tender mass, which is present in the majority of pediatric patients, is only infrequently observed in adults. Thus, symptoms are often nonspecific and the clinical presentation may be inconspicuous. Because of the large proportion of structural anomalies, adult intussusception requires definitive treatment, of which surgical resection is the treatment of choice. In patients with colocolonic or ileocolonic intussusception, malignancy should be considered and therefore en bloc resection rather than reduction is the recommended surgical technique, whereas cases of enteric intussusceptions may be reduced by limited resection of the small intestine.
