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

A rare adult case of intussusception caused by malignant lymphoma of the cecum with intramural metastasis is reported. The patient was a 24-year-old man. Ileocolic intussusception was diagnosed by characteristic findings on abdominal computed tomography. Endoscopic examination revealed a massive protuberant tumor, 3 cm in diameter, and a semipedunculated polyp, 1 cm in diameter, in the cecum, which had caused the ileocolic intussusception. Endoscopic biopsy specimens failed to yield a definitive diagnosis histologically, but right hemicolectomy with lymph node dissection was performed. On histologic examination of the surgical specimens, both the tumor and the polyp were diagnosed as diffuse lymphoma of medium-sized cell type, and no lymph node involvement was found. The patient responded well to surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment, and has had no recurrence of malignant lymphoma in the 2 years since the surgical treatment. This was a very rare case of an intussusception in an adult patient due to malignant lymphoma in the cecum with intramural metastasis and without lymph node involvement.
