Adult Colocolic Intussusception: A Rare Case of Intestinal Obstruction.
Article in Cureus, 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
Intussusception occurs when a part of the intestine slides into its distal adjacent portion and is a surgical emergency. Adult colocolic intussusception is rare, but it is a severe condition and is usually associated with a presence of a tumoral process. We present the case of a frail male patient admitted to our emergency department with abdominal pain, prostration, and dyspnea. The patient was diagnosed with colocolic intussusception and was submitted to a subtotal colectomy and ileostomy. Patients with colocolic intussusception usually present with chronic abdominal pain and signs of intestinal obstruction. Abdominal CT scan facilitates the diagnosis, but most cases are only diagnosed intraoperatively. Given the high probability of colon cancer, the treatment involves an oncological resection of the intestinal segment. Colocolic intussusception is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction in adults where a high suspicion index is of paramount importance, especially considering that most of the diagnoses are made at surgery.
