Total Laparoscopic Excision of a Large Tailgut Cyst.
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
Tailgut cysts are rare congenital cysts that develop from the embryological remnants of the gut. They are usually found in the retrorectal space. In most of the cases, they are asymptomatic. The treatment of choice for tailgut cysts is complete surgical excision and both open and laparoscopic approaches have been described in the literature. The laparoscopic approach provides better visualization of pelvic structures and results in better post-operative outcomes when compared to the open approach. However, it can be challenging in cases with large tailgut cysts. We present a case of a female patient with a large tailgut cyst who underwent total laparoscopic excision.
