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

Adult intussusception is rare and is almost always associated with a lead point. Polyposis syndromes are a common cause of adult intussusceptions, with polyps acting as lead points. Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is associated with benign hamartomatous polyps and mucocutaneous pigmentation. Although hamartomatous polyps are not premalignant, there is an increased risk of gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal malignancy, most commonly involving the small bowel. Most patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with acute abdomen are diagnosed to have intussusceptions, mostly of the enteroenteric type. Colocolic intussusceptions are rare in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. To the best of our knowledge, synchronous colocolic intussusception in association with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome has not been previously reported. Here we present a case of malignant jejunal mass and synchronous colocolic intussusceptions in a patient with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.
