Amyand's hernia: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
An Amyand's hernia is a type of inguinal hernia where the appendix protrudes into the hernial sac. Pre-operative diagnosis is clinically challenging and ultimately the diagnosis is made intra-operatively. We report on a 75-year-old lady who presented with abdominal pain and a lump in her right groin region. She proceeded to theatre and had a diagnostic laparoscopy where she was diagnosed with an Amyand's hernia. The appendix was mildly inflamed and there was an ischemic appearance of the mesoappendix. According to the guidelines proposed by Losanoff and Basson she subsequently underwent a successful laparoscopic appendicectomy and primary repair of the hernia.
