Acute appendicitis complicated by mesenteric vein thrombosis: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundAcute appendicitis with mesenteric vein thrombosis (MVT) is an uncommon condition and usually lacks specific clinical manifestations, which leads to a high rate of misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, especially when it is accompanied by other abdominal diseases. Prompt and accurate recognition is vital for treatment and prognosis. CASE SUMMARY: A 37-year-old woman had a history of acute metastatic right lower abdominal pain, nausea, and fever. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan showed a filling defect in the mesenteric vessels. The patient was diagnosed with acute appendicitis complicated by MVT and was treated with anticoagulation and intravenous antibiotics. The follow-up CT scan showed full resolution of the thrombosis and inflammation.
conclusionClinical awareness is essential for recognizing MVT, especially when it is accompanied by other common acute abdominal diseases, such as acute appendicitis. Contrast-enhanced CT is helpful for the diagnosis of MVT and is recommended for patients with acute abdominal diseases.
