Intercepting the Intussusception: A Rare Case of Adult Intussusception With a Cecal Neuroendocrine Tumor Lead Point.
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
Intussusception is the invagination of one segment of the bowel into the adjacent bowel segment leading to obstruction, intestinal ischemia and, in severe cases, peritonitis and perforation. While the condition is more common in children, adult intussusception does occur and is often attributed to malignancy. In this case report, we discuss an adult man who presented for weight loss and intermittent abdominal pain and was ultimately found to have ileocecal intussusception on CT imaging. A colonoscopy with cold biopsy was performed and pathology reports displayed a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor lead point; a rare event with only a few cases reported. Ultimately, the patient was taken to the operating room, and an ileocecectomy was performed with primary anastomosis. Prompt diagnosis and management are crucial in adult intussusception as a missed event can lead to tumor progression, bowel ischemia, bleeding and necrosis.
