Giant low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundAppendiceal mucinous neoplasm (AMN) is extremely rare. Since the disease does not manifest a characteristic profile of clinical symptoms, it is easy to misdiagnose and still difficult to diagnose without operation. Here, we report a case of low-grade AMN (LAMN) and summarize its clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment. CASE SUMMARY: A 63-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with a history of right lower abdominal mass. The patient underwent laparotomy, which showed an appendiceal mucocele originating from the apex of the appendix, and a simple appendectomy was performed. The subsequent histological assessment identified an LAMN with no lymph node involvement and negative surgical margin. The patient received six cycles of chemotherapy after surgery, and to date, more than a year after the surgery, the patient remains in good health.
conclusionA unified, standardized, detailed, and accurate pathological diagnosis is needed for LAMN, to facilitate selection of an appropriate surgical plan. In addition, the surgeon should record the details of the tumors in the surgical records in order to facilitate follow-up after surgery.
