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 ileocolic intussusception is almost always associated with a pathological lead point. We present a 29-year-old male with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who attended with a one-week history of colicky right iliac fossa pain and loose stools. Communication difficulties related to ASD delayed a clear clinical history. Abdominal ultrasonography demonstrated a 7.0 × 6.0 cm target sign in the subhepatic region. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed ileocolic intussusception extending to the hepatic flexure, with a heterogeneously enhancing 6.6 × 4 × 3.4 cm lead-point mass. Diagnostic laparoscopy was converted to open right hemicolectomy with ileocolic anastomosis. Histopathology revealed B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, confirmed by immunohistochemistry (CD20+, BCL2+, BCL6+, MUM1+, and c-MYC+). The patient was referred for oncological management and was well at one-month review. This case highlights that adult intussusception caused by lymphoma can present insidiously, particularly in patients with impaired communication, and that early cross-sectional imaging and prompt surgical resection are essential.
