Gastric Signet Ring Cell Adenocarcinoma Presenting as Intermittent Volvulus of Small Bowel: A Case Presentation and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is an uncommon and poorly differentiated tumor. It arises mostly in the gastrointestinal tract. The incidence of gastric SRCC has increased in the past few years. Volvulus is the twisting of the bowel around its mesentery. It is classified as either primary or secondary. It is relatively common in the cecum and sigmoid colon. Volvulus of other parts of the gastrointestinal tract is relatively rare. Herein, we present a case of small bowel volvulus (SBV) secondary to advanced gastric SRCC with peritoneal carcinomatosis. The patient had presented with nausea and vomiting. Initial computed tomography (CT) scan of abdomen unveiled jejunal volvulus. SBV resolved spontaneously on a repeat CT scan. Enteroscopy with histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of gastric SRCC, which turned to be metastatic to peritoneum on laparoscopy. We believe our case is unique due to the rarity of advanced gastric SRCC presenting as secondary jejunal SBV without appreciated gastric mass on imaging.
