Ganglioneuroma: a rare appendiceal tumour - case report and literature review.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ganglioneuromas (GN) are tumours of ectodermal origin, derived from the neural crest cells. Appendiceal GN are extremely rare, with only eight contemporary case reports in the literature. Being benign and indolent, the necessity of resection for GNs is often debated. However, obtaining tissue to confirm the diagnosis can be challenging, frequently leading to surgical resection. We present a case of an 85-year-old male with an enlarging appendiceal nodule diagnosed endoscopically. Further investigation with computed tomography (CT) scan failed to define the pathology. A laparoscopic appendicectomy was performed, which confirmed the diagnosis of appendiceal GN.
