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

Amyand's hernia is defined as the presence of the appendix within an inguinal hernia sac, which is often associated with appendicitis. The association of an Amyand's hernia with an appendicular tumor has been reported in very few cases. This case report presents a 67-year-old female patient who came to the emergency department with symptoms indicative of a complicated inguinal hernia. Following surgical treatment, the diagnosis of Amyand's hernia with cecal perforation associated with an appendicular tumor was established in the context of a previous laparoscopic femoral hernia repair. The combination of these conditions has not been previously reported. The presentation of this case provides data on the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of this rare pathology that requires a high clinical suspicion to achieve a preoperative diagnosis.
