Retrospective analysis of cases of intestinal invagination treated and followed-up at our clinic.

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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to present data on the diagnosis, treatment, clinical course, and outcome of cases of intestinal invagination.
methodsData of 11 patients treated for intestinal invagination at one center between June 2009 and July 2015 were analyzed retrospectively in terms of demographic data, etiological factors, anatomical localization of invagination, admission complaints, physical examination findings, diagnostic imaging modalities used, postoperative complications, and hospital stay.
resultsOf the total, 9 (81.8%) patients were female and 2 (18.2%) were male. Nine (81.8%) cases occurred due to benign causes and 2 to malignant causes. One (9%) patient had jejunojejunal invagination, 5 (45.5%) had ileoileal invagination, and 5 (45.5%) had ileocecal invagination. Right hemicolectomy-ileotransversostomy was performed in 5 (45.5%) patients and segmental small bowel resection with end-to-end anastomosis in 6 (54.5%).
conclusionIntestinal invagination is a rare cause of acute abdomen in adults that may have a variety of etiologies and therefore may present with different clinical pictures. Abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting are the most common symptoms. The rate of accurate diagnosis is 30% to 35% using ultrasonography and 50% to 80% using computerized tomography. In adults, the preferred treatment is surgery. As malignant pathologies are responsible for some cases of invagination, oncological principles should be strictly observed in surgical treatment. Though a rare cause of acute abdomen and/or ileus in adults, invagination is a clinical condition that must be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis.
