1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionFeeding jejunostomy is a rare cause of jejuno-jejunal intussusception, with presentations ranging from mild bowel obstruction to severe ischemia or perforation. CASE PRESENTATION: A 21-year-old male with a recent history of feeding jejunostomy placement presented with acute upper abdominal pain, bilious vomiting, and inability to pass stool or flatus. Ultrasonography confirmed jejuno-jejunal intussusception, necessitating resection of the affected segment and jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. One year postoperatively, the patient remains asymptomatic with no recurrence. DISCUSSION: Review of 17 cases of jejuno-jejunal intussusception post-jejunostomy revealed abdominal pain, vomiting, and abdominal distension as common symptoms. Diagnosis relied on imaging modalities like ultrasound or CT, and surgery was the primary treatment.

conclusionThis case underscores the importance of suspicion and timely intervention to prevent complications in patients with feeding jejunostomy presenting with obstructive symptoms.
