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
introductionThe method of stump closure is controversial in complicated patients, especially with appendix base necrosis or perforation.
aimTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of partial cecum resection technique with an endostapler in patients with appendix base necrosis or perforation. MATERIAL AND
methodsThirty-six patients who underwent laparoscopic partial cecum resection due to appendix base necrosis or perforation between 2015 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. In acute complicated appendicitis with appendiceal base necrosis or perforation, it was performed by laparoscopic partial cecum resection using an endostapler within a safe surgical margin. Demographic characteristics, duration of operation, days of hospital stay, and intra- and post-operative complications were evaluated.
resultsThe mean age of the patients is 42.72 ±16.69, female/male ratio was 19/17 (52.8%/47.2%). No intraoperative complications developed. Mean operative time and hospital stay were 104.75 ±34.96, 4.58 ±2.82 days, respectively. Post-operative complications developed in 5 (13.7%) patients. One of them was wound infection (2.7%), 2 of them were ileus (5.5%) and 2 patients had an intraabdominal abscess (5.5%). Stapler line leak was not observed in any of the patients.
conclusionsThe use of an endostapler in laparoscopic appendectomy is a safe and effective technique in cases where appendix base necrosis, appendix perforation or severe inflammation affects the base of the cecum.
