Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms: a case series.
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 2 papers.
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
Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms, including low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs), are infrequent but clinically relevant due to their potential progression to pseudomyxoma peritonei. Timely diagnosis and surgical intervention are critical to preventing complications. We present a case series of three middle-aged men with LAMNs, each of whom exhibited right lower quadrant abdominal pain as their primary symptom. Diagnostic imaging in each case revealed features consistent with appendiceal mucoceles. Pathological findings confirmed LAMN, with varying extents of disease. One patient underwent an open appendectomy for LAMN confined to the appendix, while two required right hemicolectomy due to perforation and extra-appendiceal mucin involvement. LAMNs can be managed effectively through early detection and surgical resection. Complete resection with negative margins results in favorable outcomes and low recurrence rates. More aggressive treatments, including cytoreductive surgery with or without hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, are necessary in cases with peritoneal involvement.
