Laparoscopic limited hemicolectomy for descending colo-colic intussusception in an adult.
Article in Journal of minimal access surgery, 2025. 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
abstractIntussusception in adults represents 1% of bowel obstructions and up to 0.02% of all hospital admissions. Amongst these, colo-colic intussusception of the descending colon forms the rarest of causes due to the fixed nature of the descending colon. Most of adult intussusceptions follow a lead point and are commonly due to colonic malignancy which may get missed on pre-operative evaluation. Surgery is usually warranted as these patients are usually symptomatic and at risk of vascular compromise, leading to perforations and obscure malignancies. We present a case of laparoscopic limited hemicolectomy and primary anastomosis in a middle-aged male who presented with colo-colic intussusception, which appeared to be following a malignant mass on imaging and lipoma on colonoscopic biopsy done twice. Keeping in mind the possibility of a malignant lead point, no attempt was made to reduce the intussusception and a vessel first approach with 5 cm margin on either side was performed.
