Small Bowel Perforation Due to Rare Metastasis From Stage IV Lung Adenocarcinoma.
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
Lung adenocarcinoma commonly metastasizes to the lymph nodes, bone, nervous system, liver, respiratory system, and adrenal gland. Metastasis to the small bowel is extremely rare and the literature deals mostly with few published case reports. We present a case of a 70-year-old male with a previous history of stage IV lung adenocarcinoma with brain and liver metastases treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. He presented to the emergency department with peritonitis and sepsis due to bowel perforation. He underwent an emergency exploratory laparotomy and small bowel resection. Surgical pathology revealed metastatic lung adenocarcinoma as the cause of bowel perforation. He tolerated and recovered from surgery well and was discharged on postoperative day 7. On one-month follow-up as an outpatient, he was doing well and had no complications or complaints from his recent surgery.
