Percutaneous Cecostomy Catheters.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2025. 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
Percutaneous cecostomy catheters can be placed in the setting of either fecal incontinence or large bowel obstruction. While there are several etiologies for these disorders, the purpose of the cecostomy catheter is to provide ease of access for antegrade enemas in patients with fecal incontinence or relieve pain and discomfort in patients with a large bowel obstruction. Image-guided, percutaneous catheter placement into the cecum fits easily into the skillset of the interventional radiologist. Even though the literature consists of mostly single-center, retrospective case series, the procedure shows high rates of technical success, outstanding clinical outcomes, excellent patient satisfaction scores, and low rates of major adverse events. The purpose of this article is to review indications for cecostomy catheter placement, outline preprocedural patient evaluation, describe intraprocedural steps of catheter placement, detail postprocedural follow-up, and review both technical and clinical outcomes of cecostomy catheter placement.
