Colorectal Cancer Arising in a Diverticulum: Report of an Unusual Presentation.
Article in Case reports in gastrointestinal medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The coexistence of diverticulitis and colorectal cancer is rare but clinically significant. We present an unusual case of an elderly patient with recurrent acute diverticulitis, colonic obstruction due to a sigmoid stenosis, in which an adenocarcinoma originated within a diverticulum. This presentation is particularly challenging because the extramural growth pattern within the wall of the pseudodiverticulum, which lacks the muscularis propria layer, facilitates early transmural spread without a significant intraluminal mucosal mass, leading to an advanced diagnosis more frequently. This case underscores the need for high clinical vigilance and specialized radiologic review in patients with complex diverticular disease and unexplained stenosis.
