Don't Forget About New Pathology.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Appendicitis is an inflammatory condition of the appendix. Patients typically present with migratory right iliac fossa pain, reduced appetite, fever, nausea and vomiting. Despite its characteristic presentation, diagnosis remains challenging, particularly in cases where there has been unrelated prior surgery which may obscure the clinical picture. We present a case of a 59-year-old male who had three previous needle aspirations following a pelvic and inguinal lymph node dissection for metastatic melanoma subsequently presenting with a further episode of right iliac fossa pain. This case underscores the diagnostic challenges that may arise in individuals with a history of surgical interventions, emphasizing the importance of a comprehensive approach to ensure the timely and accurate identification of appendicitis.
