Entangled: Rapunzel syndrome with postoperative intussusception.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
We present a case of a 7-year-old girl with Rapunzel syndrome, a rare complication of trichobezoar, initially presenting with nonspecific symptoms. Diagnostic challenges led to delayed intervention. Surgical removal of the trichobezoar was successful, but postoperative complications included jejunojejunal intussusception, highlighting the necessity for vigilant follow-up and comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. The emergence of intussusception emphasizes the profound impact of underlying psychiatric disorders, such as trichotillomania and trichophagia, which contribute to trichobezoar formation. These conditions necessitate ongoing psychiatric management to address behavioral factors that predispose to recurrent bezoar formation and associated gastrointestinal complications. Effective follow-up strategies should encompass immediate postoperative care and long-term psychiatric support to optimize patient outcomes and minimize the risk of recurrent intussusception.
