Bowel intussusceptions in adults: the role of imaging.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Intestinal intussusception in adults is a rare condition, accounting for about 0.003-0.02% of all hospital admissions. This condition in adults represents only 5% of all cases of intussusceptions and is different from paediatric intussusception, which is usually idiopathic. In contrast, almost 90% of cases in adults are secondary to various pathologies that serve as a lead point, such as polyps, Meckel's diverticulum, colonic diverticulum, or malignant or benign neoplasm. The aim of the present study was to assess the capabilities of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) in the diagnosis and correct characterisation of intussusception, especially in distinguishing between intussusceptions with a lead point and those without. Indeed, although the MSCT findings that help to differentiate between lead point and non-lead point intussusceptions have not been well studied, abdominal MSCT remains the most sensitive radiological tool to confirm bowel intussusceptions. Moreover, differentiating intussusceptions with a lead point condition from those without is crucial for directing the patient towards the most appropriate treatment, avoiding surgery when not necessary.
