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

Intussusception occurs mainly in children but rarely in adults. About 80-90% of adult cases of intussusception are due to benign or malignant neoplasms as a lead point. One of the causes is an inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP), a rare, benign entity that occurs more frequently in the stomach than the ileum. We describe an uncommon case of a patient who presented with intussusception-induced IFP of the ileum. A 35-year-old woman presented with a 2-day history of abdominal pain. A computed tomography scan demonstrated ileocolic intussusception. During colonoscopy, reduction by pressured air easily released intussusception, and we suspected a submucosal tumour of the ileum. Successful pre-operative colonoscopic reduction was helpful for performing laparoscopic ileocecal resection 2 days later. Results of the histopathological examination confirmed a large IFP. The patient's post-operative course was uneventful. Pre-operative reduction by colonoscopy is effective for the diagnosis and treatment of intussusception-induced IFP.
