Review in Current oncology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purpose of reviewTo summarize the literature from the last 5 years on treatment of appendiceal neuroendocrine neoplasms (aNEN). Furthermore, to evaluate the prognostic significance of lymph node metastases, indications for adjuvant treatment, and challenges of the current follow-up regimen. RECENT

findingsSimple appendectomy is sufficient in tumors < 1 cm while extended surgery is indicated in tumors > 2 cm. In a multicenter study of aNENs measuring 1-2 cm, extended surgery offered no significant prognostic advantage and is now limited to incomplete tumor resection or high-grade G2 or G3 aNEN. Follow-up remains debatable, as the use of imaging and biomarkers lacks validation. While surgical procedure is well established in aNEN tumors < 1 cm and > 2 cm, the need for extended surgery in aNEN tumors 1-2 cm is questionable. Future studies should address the prognostic impact of lymph node metastases and the optimal design and duration of follow-up.
