Bowel perforation and transrectal migration, an extremely rare complication of a peritoneal dialysis catheter: a case report.
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
Peritoneal dialysis catheters are an excellent and highly effective treatment for end-stage renal failure. This procedure is relatively easy and straightforward, but as with any other medical procedure, it can lead to complications, which include infection, hematoma, leakage, and peritonitis. However, in a few selected cases, the catheter can perforate the bowel, and in even rarer cases, it can migrate through it. We report the case of an 18-year-old who needed renal replacement therapy through a Tenckhoff catheter. Two years after its placement, he suddenly noticed that the tip of the catheter protruded through his anus. Migration of the catheter was diagnosed, and during surgery, a fistulous tract from the small bowel to the rectum was found. After surgery, the patient recovered successfully and is on close follow-up.
