1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Acute intestinal intussusception in adults is a rare condition, most often secondary to an organic lesion (tumor or inflammation), representing 1%-5% of intestinal obstructions. Pure colic intussusception on lipoma rectal causing bowel obstruction is an exceptional situation. A 60-year-old man presented to the emergency department for acute abdominal pain with marked abdominal distention and red rectal bleeding. A contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scan was performed, which revealed a recto-sigmoid intussusception on lipoma, causing mechanical intestinal obstruction. The patient underwent a partial reduction of the intussusception with partial sigmoid resection and end colostomy. Colonic lipomas of the recto-sigmoid region represent a very rare condition and a subsequent etiology for intussusception and bowel obstruction in adults. However, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of such situations.
