Ileal Endometriosis: A Rare Case.
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
Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of it. Although it typically affects organs within the pelvis, it can sometimes spread to other areas in the abdomen. Involvement of the ileum is uncommon, and its symptoms can resemble those of conditions such as inflammatory and neoplastic disease. A 36-year-old woman with no significant medical history presented with abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting. Imaging suggested a stenotic lesion in the terminal ileum, and colonoscopy was normal. After exploratory laparoscopy showed severe ileal stricture with fibrosis, a right colectomy was performed given the different diagnoses of these lesions, especially Crohn's disease and neoplastic disease. Histopathology confirmed ileal endometriosis. This case emphasizes the diagnostic challenges of ileal endometriosis and the critical role of surgical intervention for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
