Ileal benign tumor (Vanek's tumor) a rare cause of bowel obstruction in elderly adult: a case report.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 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
Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFP) are rare benign lesions of the gastrointestinal tract that can lead to serious complications, such as intussusception, particularly in adults. We present a case of small bowel intussusception caused by IFP, emphasizing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The patient presented with acute abdominal pain and signs of intestinal obstruction, confirmed by computed tomography, with the tumor identified during transoperatory and histopathological examinations confirmed the diagnosis of IFP. This case highlights the importance of considering IFP as a differential diagnosis in adult bowel obstruction secondary to intussusception, and the need for timely surgical intervention to prevent complications. The literature contains some case reports of IFPs that explaining the management and diagnosis of this pathology. Our objective was to communicate our experience of IFP as the etiology of intestinal obstruction in an elderly adult.
