Lipoma-Associated Intussusception of the Transverse Colon.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Intestinal intussusception rarely occurs in adults and is challenging to diagnose in the emergency department due to its associated nonspecific symptom of abdominal pain. Most of these incidences are caused by a neoplasm within the bowel acting as a lead point. Lipomas are benign fatty tumors that rarely develop in the colon and are very infrequently a precursor lesion to intussusception. Our present report describes a case of lipoma-associated intussusception in the transverse colon in an adult who presented with complaints of abdominal pain and acutely worsened chronic constipation. Computerized tomography (CT) imaging and barium enema revealed colocolonic intussusception with a lipomatous lead point and complete obstruction. The patient was admitted for same-day intervention and underwent a successful colectomy with no complications.
