Atypical Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome Presenting With a Huge Jejunojejunal Intussusception in a Young Male: A Case Report.

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 is considered one of the rare causes of intestinal obstruction in adults compared to pediatric patients. It usually presents with non-specific clinical manifestations ranging from mild recurrent abdominal pain to severe acute abdominal pain. The non-specificity of its symptoms makes it difficult to diagnose preoperatively. As 90% of adult intussusceptions are due to a pathological lead point, this prompts the underlying medical condition to be identified. We herein report a rare case of a 21-year-old male with atypical clinical features of Peutz-Jegher syndrome (PJS), presenting with jejunojejunal intussusception as a result of a hamartomatous intestinal polyp. A preliminary diagnosis of intussusception was made after an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan and was confirmed intraoperatively. Postoperatively, the patient's condition improved steadily, and he was discharged with a referral to the gastroenterologist for further assessment.
