Migrated Foreign Body Perforating the Colon: Scope for Colonoscopy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are still commonly used as a method of contraception in many parts of the world. Bowel perforation is a serious complication of IUD use. In most cases of migration, the IUD is removed laparoscopically or by laparotomy. In this case report, we have documented a novel case of copper IUD (Cu-T) migration and sigmoid colon perforation more than 30 years after insertion with nonspecific symptoms. It was removed colonoscopically without complications or the need for surgical intervention. We recommend the colonoscopy approach as the treatment of choice in similar cases.
