Adult ileocecal intussusception as an unusual presentation of ascending colon adenocarcinoma: a case report from Sudan.

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
Adult colonic intussusception, is a rare entity that is typically associated with underlying organic pathologies, notably colorectal tumors, unlike pediatric cases, which are mostly idiopathic. We present a unique case of a 42-year-old female with ascending colon adenocarcinoma, where ileocecal intussusception served as the initial clinical manifestation. The patient's non-specific symptoms, familial history of colon cancer and subsequent diagnostic evaluations underscore the importance of considering malignancy in such presentations. Successful laparoscopic right hemicolectomy resolved the intussusception. This case, which is the first case to be reported in Sudan, highlights the clinical complexities of adult colonic intussusception, emphasizing the need for a heightened index of suspicion for underlying malignancy and the significance of timely surgical intervention. Furthermore, the challenges encountered in resource-limited settings underscore the necessity for genetic testing to guide familial screenings and identify hereditary factors contributing to colon cancer, providing valuable insights for clinicians managing similar cases.
