1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Multi-detector CT (MDCT) is a highly accurate diagnostic tool that is commonly used to evaluate appendicitis and its complications. The diagnosis of appendicitis based on MDCT findings can be difficult and challenging when the observed findings are inconsistent with the typical features. Atypical appendicitis includes a wide spectrum of features, such as variable positions of the appendix and cecum, complications, and unusual pathological findings of secondary appendicitis that mimic or induce appendicitis. Our pictorial essay describes the diverse spectrum of atypical appendicitis and appendicitis-like conditions in terms of location abnormalities, complications, and uncommon pathologies, including related tumors, reactive appendicitis, appendiceal diverticulitis, and IgG4-related disease. Through this essay, the readers can become more familiar with MDCT findings of atypical appendicitis.
