[Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on appendicitis in COVID-19 negative children].
Article in Monatsschrift Kinderheilkunde : Organ der Deutschen Gesellschaft fur Kinderheilkunde, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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 global COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown in Germany had an impact on all areas of social life. In a single-center study, we were able to demonstrate a statistically more frequent occurrence of perforated appendicitis in COVID-19 negative children for the first 6 months of the COVID-19 pandemic (39.5% vs. 20.6%;
