Laparoscopic Resection for Ileocecal Intussusception Caused by an Inflammatory Fibroid Polyp: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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 polyp (IFP) is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract, typically found in the stomach, while occurrence in the small intestine is uncommon. Adult ileocecal intussusception caused by an IFP is extremely rare. We report the case of a 56-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain. Abdominal ultrasonography demonstrated a target sign, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed ileocecal intussusception with a mesenteric vessel converging sign. Colonoscopy identified a protruding lesion with shallow ulceration in the terminal ileum, and biopsy suggested IFP with marked eosinophilic infiltration, although malignancy could not be excluded. The patient underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection with D3 lymphadenectomy. Histopathological examination confirmed IFP, showing spindle cell proliferation with abundant eosinophilic infiltration and rich vascularization. Immunohistochemically, the lesion was positive for CD34 and negative for c-kit and DOG1. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 6. IFP should be considered in the differential diagnosis of adult intussusception in the ileocecal region, and laparoscopic oncologic resection represents an appropriate treatment option when malignancy cannot be ruled out.
