11 cases of peritoneal dialysis catheter penetrating into the intestinal cavity: case series.

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 penetration of a peritoneal dialysis catheter into the intestinal cavity is a clinically rare complication. In the present retrospective clinical case series, 11 patients with uraemia who received continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and attended hospital between 2019 and 2023 are described. The median patient age was 61.91 ± 11.33 years. All patients had previously experienced peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis and were clinically cured by infusing sensitive antibiotics into the abdominal cavity. Colonoscopy was utilised to locate the penetrating catheter and close the perforation with a titanium clip once the catheter had been removed via an external approach. Following a 2-4-week fast, the perforations healed in all 11 patients. The present authors' experience illustrates that directly removing the catheter and clamping the perforation opening under the guidance of colonoscopy is simple to operate with few complications compared with traditional open surgery.
