Contrast-induced ischemic colitis following coronary angiography: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundIschemic colitis (IC) is common, rising in incidence and associated with high mortality. Its presentation, disease behavior and severity vary widely, and there is significant heterogeneity in therapeutic strategies and prognosis. The common causes of IC include thromboembolism, hemodynamic insufficiency, iatrogenic factors and drug-induced. However, contrast-induced IC, especially isolated right colon ischemia is rarely reported. CASE SUMMARY: A 52-year-old man was admitted to the hospital due to intermittent chest distress accompanied by palpitation. Coronary angiography was performed using 60 mL of the iodinated contrast agent iohexol (Omnipaque 300), and revealed moderate stenosis of the left anterior descending artery and right coronary artery. At 3 h post-procedure, he complained of epigastric pain without fever, diarrhea and vomiting. Vital signs remained normal. An iodixanol-enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed thickening, edema of the ascending and right transverse colonic wall and inflammatory exudate, without thrombus in mesenteric arteries and veins. Following 4 days of treatment with antibiotic and supportive management, the patient had a quick and excellent recovery with disappearance of abdominal pain, normalization of leucocyte count and a significant decrease in C reactive protein. There was no recurrence of abdominal pain during the patient's two-year follow-up.
conclusionThis case emphasizes that contrast-induced IC should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unexplained abdominal pain after a cardiovascular interventional procedure with the administration of contrast media. Timely imaging evaluation by CT and early diagnosis help to improve the prognosis of IC.
