Adult intussusception with multiple intestinal adhesions: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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 enters another segment of the intestine causing bowel obstruction. It is common in children but not in adults with only <5% of prevalence of all intussusceptions. Most of the cases have an underlying neoplastic pathology. However, we found a case where an adult patient with 2 weeks of ileus obstruction is caused by intussusception with multiple intestinal adhesions. A 59-year-old man complained of being unable to defecate, or vomit and had a tender abdomen for 2 weeks. Contrast abdominal CT showed a dilated and thickened intestinal wall, with ileo-ileal intussusception in the distal terminal ileum, indicating a diagnosis of ileus obstruction due to intussusception. During laparotomy, intussusception was found but released spontaneously followed by ancillary findings were multiple adhesions in the ileum that caused the intussusception and obstruction. In conclusion, transient intussusception in adults with multiple adhesions has never been reported before, and a CT scan is an important clinical tool to diagnose and identify the cause of this condition. Recognizing the imaging abnormalities earlier is important to prevent further complications.
