Lymphoma-related intussusception in children: diagnostic challenges and clinical characteristics.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Intussusception is a common cause of acute abdominal pain in children and the most frequent cause of intestinal obstruction in infants. Although often idiopathic, it can stem from conditions like lymphoma. This study delves into lymphoma-related intussusception in children, aiming to enhance early detection and management. A retrospective review encompassed children admitted from 2012 to 2023 with intussusception due to intestinal lymphoma. Demographic, clinical, and imaging data were meticulously extracted and analyzed. The study included 31 children in the lymphoma-related intussusception group. Contrasted with non-lymphoma-related cases, the patients of lymphoma-related intussusception were notably older (median age: 87 months vs. 18.5 months), predominantly male, and demonstrated protracted abdominal pain. Ultrasound unveiled mesenteric lymph node enlargement and distinct intra-abdominal masses; enema reduction success rates were notably diminished. Detecting lymphoma-related intussusception remains intricate. Age, prolonged symptoms, and distinctive ultrasound findings can arouse suspicion. Timely surgical intervention, based on preoperative imaging, proves pivotal for accurate diagnosis.
conclusionSwift identification of lymphoma-related intussusception, distinguished by unique clinical and ultrasound features, is imperative for timely intervention and treatment. Further research is warranted to refine diagnostic approaches. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Intussusception in pediatric patients can be caused by a wide spectrum of underlying diseases including lymphoma. • Early Identifying the exact underlying cause of intussusception is crucial for tailored therapy, however often challenging and time-consuming. WHAT IS NEW: • Lymphoma-related intussusception may present with increased abdominal fluid accumulation, intestinal obstruction, and a higher likelihood of failed reduction during enema procedures. • For high-risk children, repeated ultrasound examinations or further investigations may be necessary to confirm the diagnosis.
