Modified Graham patch repair for cecal perforation: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 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
introduction and importanceAcute appendicitis is a common cause of acute abdomen worldwide. The complications associated with it can sometimes be unpredictable and pose a dilemma in the management of such complications. CASE PRESENTATION: A case of 18 year female with complaints of right iliac fossa pain and vomiting was diagnosed clinically as acute appendicitis and underwent emergency open appendectomy where a cecal perforation was encountered intra-operatively for which a Modified Graham's Patch Repair was done. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Acute appendicitis can sometimes present with complications like perforation, among which cecal perforation is rare and difficult to diagnose in the initial setting. Perforated appendicitis or colon can increase morbidity and mortality significantly. High degree of suspicion and early surgical approach can lead to identification of rare complications, which can still pose a surgical dilemma on the approach of management.
conclusionCecal perforation in suspected acute appendicitis is a rarely encountered intra operative complication. Management approaches can range from less invasive suture with omental patch repair to more invasive right hemicolectomy.
