Low-grade Mucinous Appendiceal Neoplasm: a Tumor in Disguise of Appendicitis.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms are a rare malignancy, but it is an important diagnostic entity. Ultrasonography and CT scan represent useful method for diagnosis; however, diagnosis is often incidental or intraoperative finding at resection for suspicion of appendicitis. Appendiceal mucinous neoplasm is commonly misdiagnosed as acute appendicitis, adnexal mass, or retroperitoneal tumors. Our case represents the importance of developing a high index of suspicion of appendiceal malignancy and mucocele rupture in patients who are planned for appendectomy. There is risk of second malignancy mostly of ovary, breast, kidney, and gastrointestinal tract simultaneously in about 30% of patients of appendiceal mucinous neoplasm. Low-grade mucinous neoplasm has excellent prognosis after standard appendectomy. Advanced stage low-grade mucinous neoplasm involving periappendiceal area or with nodal metastasis is treated by appendectomy with right hemicolectomy and lymph node dissection. We report a case of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm in a 65-year-old female with past history of surgery for benign bilateral adnexal lesions.
