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

backgroundA muco-submucosal elongated polyp is a non-neoplastic growth composed of mucosa and submucosa. Although muco-submucosal elongated polyps are commonly reported in the large intestine, they are rare in the small intestine, in which they are called enteric muco-submucosal elongated polyps. We herein present a case of jejunal intussusception and perforation due to an enteric muco-submucosal elongated polyp. CASE PRESENTATION: A 46-year-old woman presented with abdominal pain and vomiting. Computed tomography revealed jejunal intussusception, which was reduced via a nasointestinal ileus tube. Oral double-balloon endoscopy showed an elongated polyp in the proximal jejunum. The patient refused surgical resection and thus, the polyp was monitored. Six months later, the patient was readmitted with the recurrence of jejunal intussusception and underwent emergency surgery. Intraoperative findings revealed an intussuscepted bowel with an elongated polyp and multiple perforations in the proximal jejunum. We resected approximately 90 cm of the bowel, including the intussuscepted segment and perforated sites. The pedunculated polyp, which was 60 mm in length, was located on the oral side of the resected specimen. Histopathologically, the polyp was covered by normal mucosa and the submucosa consisted of edematous loose connective tissue. The histopathological diagnosis confirmed an enteric muco-submucosal elongated polyp.

conclusionsSymptomatic patients with enteric muco-submucosal elongated polyps may be at risk of complications, as observed in the present case, and need to undergo timely resection.
