Endometriosis presenting as a rectal stricture in a patient with ulcerative colitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in gastroenterology (Lausanne, Switzerland), 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
Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are at an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), which is compounded in the presence of other risk factors such as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and stricture. We report a middle-aged lady who developed a rectal stricture on the background of ulcerative colitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Although initial endoscopic biopsies showed no dysplasia, the patient proceeded with a total colectomy due to the concern for an underlying malignancy. Histology of the rectal specimens revealed endometriosis at the site of the stricture. This case emphasises the importance of evaluating the risk factor profile for malignancy in patients with ulcerative colitis while also highlighting the need to consider alternative aetiologies for rectal strictures.
