Obstructing Sigmoid Volvulus: An Unusual Complication in a Pediatric Patient With Ulcerative Colitis.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Acute colonic dilation in pediatric patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) raises a concern for toxic megacolon, but other rare conditions such as sigmoid volvulus may present in a similar manner. We report a rare case of a teenager with UC without prior surgery who developed an obstructing sigmoid volvulus managed with endoscopic detorsion and decompression. Colonic inflammation in patients with UC may result in a volvulus in the absence of other predisposing factors and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with UC who present with obstructive symptoms with an atypical presentation.
