Collision Tumor of the Appendix.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This report discusses the case of a 20-year-old female patient who presented with acute abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Initial laboratory analyses suggested an inflammatory process, but imaging studies failed to reveal pathologies. The patient underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy, which showed a thickened and multicystic appendix with signs of acute inflammation. Pathology indicated a positive cytology for malignancy, with a grade 1 mixed well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor (NET) and high-grade mucinous neoplasm identified in the middle and distal thirds of the appendix. Finding both tumors in the same patient is extremely rare and has been reported in a few cases. The case emphasizes the importance of considering appendiceal tumors in the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain, even in young patients, and highlights the value of laparoscopy in their diagnosis. The early detection and appropriate management of appendiceal tumors are crucial for improving patient outcomes.
