Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis lesions changing into yellowish plaque-like elastosis lesions during healing.
Review in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2020. 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
Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis (PCI) is a rare disease characterized by multiple gas-filled cysts in the intestinal wall. The majority of patients with PCI are asymptomatic and have a benign clinical course without treatment. Regular colonoscopic follow-up is not always clinically necessary for PCI; therefore, whether all patients with PCI eventually achieve complete endoscopic resolution remains unclear. We herein present the details of an asymptomatic 58-year-old man diagnosed with PCI in the right colon in 2011 by colonoscopy. We followed him using colonoscopy for 8 years without treatment. The PCI lesions gradually changed into multiple flat yellowish plaque-like lesions, and biopsies revealed that these were elastosis, which is a very rare pathological finding in the colon. To our knowledge, only two reports discuss morphological or histological changes similar to those of PCI. Because the development of yellowish plaque-like lesions histologically representing elastosis associated with PCI is an unrecognized entity, we herein discuss its clinical features, endoscopic findings, and histological findings with a literature review.
