[Surgical strategies for accidental detection of appendix carcinoids].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Carcinoids (neuroendocrine tumors NET) of the appendix are rare tumors and even today mostly detected only postoperatively by histopathology following operations for acute appendicitis or other abdominal procedures. Most NETs of the appendix are located at the tip of the appendix, less than 2 cm in size and non-metastasizing. Secondary right hemicolectomy with lymph node dissection bears a considerable risk of complications compared to simple appendectomy. To decide upon secondary surgery histopathological risk factors, such as grading, invasion of the mesoappendix, and tumor type in addition to tumor localization and size should be taken into consideration. Up to 20% of NETs of the appendix are associated with various neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract. Follow-up examination should therefore also consider both appendix carcinoids and synchronous or metachronous neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract.
