1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Colo-colonic intussusception is a rare clinical condition in adults. The predominant aetiology of intussusception in adults is a pathological lead point, with malignant lesions being the most common type. Lipomas are benign tumours of adipocytes that can sometimes be difficult to diagnose without histopathological confirmation as we highlight with this case report. We report a case of an asymptomatic female patient in her 50s who presented with an intussusception due to a giant colonic lipoma. Her CT imaging showed the possibility of a low-grade liposarcomatous component or atypical lipomatous tumour component. A laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed due to intussusception with the possibility of leading to colonic obstruction as well as diagnostic uncertainty of the risk of malignancy. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of a lipomatous lesion. In cases such as this, early surgical management is appropriate to rule out malignancy and prevent emergency presentation and surgery.
