Structural Alterations in Diverticular Disease.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 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
Clinicians appreciate the structural alterations of diverticular disease when navigating narrow, angulated colons with a colonoscope or removing stiff, fixed sigmoid colons at surgery. Investigation of these tissues reveals increased thickness of smooth muscle, alterations in the amount and structure of the extracellular matrix, and changes to the motility of the colon. More sophisticated technologies now allow scientists to unravel the connections between these alterations and the individual genetic background. This article explores the structural alterations of diverticular disease including collagen, smooth muscle, the enteric nervous system, and the interstitial cells of Cajal.
