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

Adult intussusception is a rare clinical entity and is typically associated with an underlying structural lesion, in contrast to pediatric cases where idiopathic causes predominate. We report a case of ileo-ileal intussusception in a 21-year-old male secondary to a large pedunculated submucosal lipoma. The patient presented with recurrent episodes of abdominal pain initially attributed to ileitis. Sequential computed tomography (CT) scans demonstrated a persistent ileo-ileal intussusception and identified a fat-density intramural lesion, allowing preoperative suspicion of a submucosal lipoma as the lead point. Urgent exploratory laparotomy revealed a long-segment ileo-ileal intussusception caused by a large pedunculated intraluminal mass. Manual reduction was performed, followed by segmental small-bowel resection and a stapled anastomosis. Histopathologic examination confirmed a 9 cm submucosal lipoma composed of mature adipose tissue, without evidence of ischemia or malignancy. The postoperative course was uneventful. This case highlights the diagnostic value of CT imaging in identifying fat-containing lead points and illustrates the radiologic, surgical, and pathologic correlation characteristic of lipoma-induced intussusception in young adults.
