Internal hernia with incarceration of the cecum through a loop created by an elongated fallopian tube.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We describe a case of a 61-year-old female who presented to the emergency department with a 2-week history of severe right and left lower abdominal quadrant abdominal pain that radiated to the back and was accompanied by nausea and vomiting. An initial computed tomography scan with contrast demonstrated unusual loops of small bowel in the left paracentral pelvis. Follow-up computed tomography scans revealed worsening dilation of the cecum. Exploratory laparotomy was indicated and revealed a mobile right mesenteric stalk, which had migrated to the left lower abdominal quadrant and become incarcerated within a loop formed by a 25 cm long left fallopian tube. The distal end of the fallopian tube was firmly adherent to the parietal peritoneum of the left lower quadrant. A right hemicolectomy and a left salpingo-oophorectomy were performed. This case appears to be the first to document the internal herniation of a mobile cecum and right mesenteric stalk through a highly unusual loop created by an elongated left fallopian tube.
