Gastrogastric intussusception in the setting of a small bowel obstruction.
Article in Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 patients comprise 5% of all intussusceptions with 2 to 3 cases per million per year. Of those, only 10% of adult intussusceptions involve the stomach. Gastrogastric intussusceptions are most often associated with lead points caused by gastric neoplasms, with a few caused by hiatal hernias or ascites. Unlike children, adult intussusceptions are rarely idiopathic. Herein, a case is presented of a 65-year-old male who was found to have a gastrogastric intussusception in the setting of a small bowel obstruction with no evidence of neoplasm confirmed by biopsy. The patient initially presented to the emergency department with nausea, emesis, and epigastric pain. Given that almost all reported cases have been associated with gastric neoplasms, this case shows an unusual phenomenon of gastrogastric intussusception that has not reported before. Furthermore, our case offers a different etiology of gastrogastric intussusception in adults other than being due to a gastric neoplasm.
