Adult Malrotation With Midgut Volvulus: A Case Requiring Temporary Abdominal Closure and Second-Look Operation.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Malrotation is a rotational anomaly of the embryonic bowel, which can be complicated by midgut volvulus. This phenomenon is typically seen in the pediatric population. Presentation in adults is rare and can present diagnostic challenges that delay diagnosis and time from presentation to definitive management in the operating room. In this case, a 43-year-old female with a past medical history of anxiety and no prior abdominal surgery presented to the emergency department with four days of abdominal pain and obstipation. She was ultimately determined to have malrotation with midgut volvulus based on intraoperative findings. There are other case reports involving adult malrotation in the current body of literature. This case is unique as the patient presented with necrotic small bowel requiring resection, temporary abdominal closure, and a second-look operation to evaluate intestinal viability and restore continuity of the bowel.
