Adenocarcinoma in the Jejunum Presenting as Acute Abdomen and Melena in an Otherwise Healthy Patient: A Case Report.
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
A jejunal adenocarcinoma is a rare form of cancer that is difficult to diagnose due to its vague and non-specific symptoms, often leading to delayed treatment and poor outcomes. In this case, we report a 43-year-old male who presented with acute abdominal pain, weight loss, and melena. A CT scan revealed a mass in the small intestine, and subsequent exploratory laparotomy confirmed the presence of a tumor, which was surgically excised. Histopathological analysis confirmed jejunal adenocarcinoma with positive CDX2 staining, ruling out other adenocarcinoma subtypes. This case underscores the importance of including jejunal adenocarcinoma in differential diagnoses of acute abdomen and highlights the critical role of early surgical intervention in improving patient outcomes.
