Unveiling a Small Bowel Obstruction: A Case of a Neuroendocrine Ileal Tumor.
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
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare, slow-growing tumors originating from the diffuse neuroendocrine cell system, predominantly affecting the digestive tract. Small bowel neuroendocrine tumors (SBNETs) may present with nonspecific symptoms, such as abdominal pain, or with intermittent intestinal obstruction. This case outlines the diagnostic journey of a septuagenarian male with prolonged abdominal symptoms and weight loss. Despite extensive investigation, a definitive cause remained elusive. Recurrent partial intestinal obstruction led to surgical exploration and segmental resection. Pathology confirmed a NET. The case underscores the importance of considering intestinal neoplasia in older patients with recurrent partial small bowel obstruction.
