Incidental Finding of a Low-Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm: A Case Study.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) are rare benign tumors of the appendix with possible life-threatening complications. A 25-year-old female patient presented to the emergency room with abdominal pain with symptoms concerning for acute appendicitis. After imaging, it was decided to proceed with an appendectomy. Final pathology showed low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm. Due to their ability to mimic appendicitis, it is important to include LAMNs in the differential diagnosis for patients of all ages, as they can cause life-threatening pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). Although this case report highlights a rare condition, it should be on a general surgeon's differential to avoid potential long-term malignancies.
