A Rare Coexistence of Mesenteric Lymphangioma and Ulcerative Colitis, Obscuring the Right Cause of Symptoms.
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
Lymphangiomas are rare, cystic tumors representing congenital malformation of the lymphatic vessels. Mesenteric lymphangioma (ML) is a rare presentation of lymphangiomas. Misdiagnosis of ML can occur because of its rarity and resemblance to other entities. Ulcerative colitis (UC) is the most common type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with an increasing incidence in pediatric populations. Here, we present a rare case of the coexistence of ML and UC. The uncommon radiological findings of ML can lead to overlooking UC; however, slight dissociation between clinical symptoms and radiological findings and the consequential decision to further investigations enabled us to reach an accurate diagnosis and avoid delaying the treatment of UC.
