The role of multidetector computed tomography enterography in the evaluation of localized malignant small intestinal lesions: retrospective radiological and pathological experience.

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
purposeOur purpose is to present our experience in using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) enterography in the evaluation of localized malignant small intestinal lesions with pathological correlation. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated 53 patients of pathologically proven malignant localized small intestinal tumours, who underwent multidetector CT enterography.
resultsIn this study, the mean age was 51.39 ± 17.4 years. The most commonly affected age group was from 50 to 59 years. The commonest clinical complaint was abdominal pain. The ileum was the most commonly affected anatomical region, showing 25 lesions (47.16%). Radiologically irregular/asymmetric wall thickening was detected in 42 cases(79.24%). Pathologically the most common malignancy was small intestinal adenocarcinoma, followed by carcinoid tumour, lymphoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST). We found that there was a statistically significant association between the pathological lymphadenopathy (
conclusionsMultidetector CT enterography is a non-invasive and accurate method in the evaluation of focal and localized small intestinal malignant lesions. The accurate detection of these lesions depends to some degree on the experience of the radiologist, lesional size, site and pattern of enhancement, as well as adequate intestinal distension.
