A Case of Jejuno-Jejunal Intussusception Caused by Underlying Metastatic Melanoma.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intussusception in adults is a rare finding with a majority of cases occurring in the pediatric population. It occurs infrequently and its presentation, etiology, and treatment differ from childhood intussusception. When discovered in adults, it raises suspicion for a neoplastic process serving as the pathological lead point. Cross-sectional imaging is the primary study of choice for diagnosis, but at times, a more invasive approach involving an exploratory laparotomy is required posing an increased risk for morbidity and mortality. Here we present a 64-year-old male who was found to have jejunal-jejunal intussusception that was surgically removed with pathology revealing metastatic melanoma as the lead point. This case highlights a unique presentation of a melanoma that was previously eradicated with immunotherapy and now had metastasized to the intestine many years later.
