Descending colo-colonic intussusception secondary to signet ring cell carcinoma: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The incidence of intussusception is low in adults, particularly in the descending colon, due to the anatomical attachment of the descending colon to the retroperitoneum. Signet ring cell histology represents ~1% of colon adenocarcinomas and is associated with young patients and a poor clinical outcome. The present study describes a case of descending colo-colonic intussusception caused by signet ring cell carcinoma in a 27-year-old male. The patient presented with a history of intermittent left upper-quadrant abdominal pain for more than six months without any evident etiology. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed left-sided colo-colonic intussusception. Upon laparotomy, a left hemicolectomy was performed according to intraoperative frozen-section pathology. Post-operative pathological evaluation revealed signet ring cell carcinoma invasion of the serosa, and 31.8% (7/22) of the regional lymph nodes were positive for cancerous cells. The post-operative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on the tenth post-operative day.
