Ultrasound diagnosis of acute appendicitis complicating De Garengeot's hernia.
Article in Journal of ultrasound, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
De Garengeot's hernia is a rare condition defined by the herniation of the vermiform appendix within a femoral hernia sac. We report a case of an 80-year-old woman admitted to our emergency department complaining of pain in the right groin. This symptomatology, present for 2 days, increased in the following 12 h. Ultrasonography (US) and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) were performed, which showed the herniation of the vermiform appendix in the femoral hernia sac. Doppler ultrasonography (DUS) and CECT were the fundamental imaging investigations for this diagnosis. The management of De Garengeot's hernia is surgical through herniorrhaphy, which makes it possible to repair the femoral hernia and perform an appendicectomy in case of appendicitis.
