1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Iatrogenic colonic perforation is a rare but serious complication of colonoscopy, particularly during therapeutic procedures. Prompt recognition and individualized management are essential to prevent adverse outcomes. This review summarizes current treatment strategies based on major international guidelines. Endoscopic closure is recommended for selected cases involving minor defects, early detection, and adequate bowel preparation. Techniques such as clipping, endoloop application, and suturing have demonstrated favorable success rates. Surgical intervention is crucial for larger, delayed, or complicated perforations, particularly those associated with significant contamination or clinical deterioration. Recognizing risk factors such as age, diverticulosis, and inadequate bowel preparation can help prevent this complication.
