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

Use of enteral nutrition has increased dramatically over the past two decades due to improved nutritional formulas, better quality feeding tubes and the ability to use less invasive endoscopic, fluoroscopic and laparoscopic techniques. Intussusception accounts for 1-5% of adult intestinal obstructions, with feeding tubes acting as a lead point in < 1% of cases. Since intussusception is rare, especially in adults, it is not always considered in the initial differential diagnosis of patients presenting with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or constipation. If left untreated, intussusception can eventually lead to bowel compromise, poor outcomes and even death. Therefore, prompt recognition and correction are necessary. We present a case of small bowel obstruction in an elderly male secondary to a tube-related intussusception. A review of the signs, symptoms and treatment recommendations is provided.
