Multiple Transient Idiopathic Small Bowel Intussusceptions in an Adult: A Rare Intraoperative Finding.
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
Adult small bowel intussusception is an uncommon clinical condition and is most frequently associated with a single pathological lead point. The occurrence of multiple synchronous small bowel intussusceptions in the absence of an identifiable cause is exceptionally rare and usually associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. We report the case of a 32-year-old male who presented with persistent lower abdominal pain and was found on imaging to have a short-segment small bowel intussusception without evidence of ischemia. Diagnostic laparoscopy revealed multiple transient entero-enteric intussusceptions occurring at several locations along the small bowel, all of which reduced easily with manipulation; however, they would intussuscept with ongoing peristalsis. No pathological lead point was identified. The patient recovered uneventfully, and follow-up imaging demonstrated no small bowel lesions and no recurrence. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges and management considerations associated with idiopathic, multifocal adult small bowel intussusception.
