Endoscopic-Assisted Percutaneous Sigmoidopexy: New Highlights on Technique and Outcomes.
Article in Clinical and experimental gastroenterology, 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
Background: Sigmoid volvulus is primarily a disease of the elderly. Case Presentation: We describe a case of recurrent sigmoid volvulus in an elderly woman who refused surgery due to the high risk posed by general anesthesia and surgical intervention. She underwent endoscopic-assisted percutaneous sigmoidopexy using only three 2-shot anchor sets. No radiographic observation was necessary during the procedure. Some puncture sites were secured using endoscopic clips. Conclusion: Endoscopic-assisted percutaneous sigmoidopexy is increasingly used as an effective alternative to surgical sigmoidopexy when surgery under general anesthesia poses a high risk. Despite clinical improvement and resolution of the recurrent volvulus, after sigmoidopexy patients may continue to experience motility dysfunction and diffuse dilation of the colon for a few weeks, which may correlate with the episodes of obstruction experienced prior to fixation.
