Colonic lipoma presenting as colo-colic intussusception in an adult.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Adult colonic intussusception caused by lipoma is rarely seen in clinical practice. Due to its infrequency, it is often incidentally diagnosed radiologically in patients presenting with abdominal pain. The challenge of pre-operative diagnosis lies in distinguishing benign lead points such as lipomas from malignant tumours, given that colonic intussusception carries a high risk of underlying malignancy. Urgent diagnosis is therefore essential to exclude a malignant cause and guide appropriate surgical management. We describe a case of a transverse colo-colic intussusception in a 50-year-old female secondary to a histologically confirmed lipoma as the lead point. The patient underwent a right hemi-colectomy and recovered well post-operatively. This case emphasizes the importance of considering intussusception in adults with abdominal pain and highlights that, rarely, they may be caused by benign colonic lesions.
