Ischemic Sigmoid Colon Presenting As Hemoperitoneum From an Avulsed Mesocolon During Colonoscopy: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Colonoscopy has proven efficacy for both screening and diagnostic purposes. Although the risk of complications during colonoscopy is low, it is not negligible. As such, we present the case of a 72-year-old male patient who presented with abdominal pain and positive peritoneal signs post-colonoscopy. He was found to have anemia and acute on chronic kidney disease. An abdominal CT scan found evidence of hemoperitoneum. Subsequently, he underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy converted into an open exploratory laparotomy to identify the source of bleeding, an avulsed mesocolon. A review of the literature regarding colonoscopy and associated complications is discussed, highlighting the importance of risk stratification to better treat patients and prognosticate outcomes.
