A Rare Case of Cecal Adenocarcinoma Presenting as Intussusception.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Colorectal cancer is widely recognized as one of the most common types of cancer worldwide. The management and outlook for colorectal cancer depend on its specific characteristics and how it presents clinically. Despite the identification of various risk factors and causes, cecal carcinoma, a type of colorectal cancer, is infrequent in Western populations under 50 years of age, and little research has been conducted on its epidemiology. Additionally, intussusception, a medical condition where one part of the intestine slides into another, is relatively rare among younger individuals. In this case report, we present a 36-year-old male who presented with abdominal pain. A physical exam revealed mild right-sided and peri-umbilical tenderness. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast revealed long segment intussusception involving the terminal ileum and cecum. The patient underwent a reduction of intussusception and hemicolectomy. He was diagnosed with invasive cecal adenocarcinoma with metastasis to lymph nodes. He was started on chemotherapy and has been following as an oncology outpatient.
