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 rare, accounting for ~1% of intestinal obstruction cases, and most cases are caused by neoplastic lesions. This report describes a 30-year-old male patient with a solitary Peutz-Jeghers syndrome hamartomatous polyp that mimicked colon cancer preoperatively. The patient had no mucocutaneous pigmentation, family history of polyposis or malignancy, and no STK11/LKB1 mutation. Whole-exome sequencing identified two novel heterozygous variants in POLE and EXO1. Intraoperative exploration of the terminal ileum is critical to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary colectomy.
