Laparoscopic appendectomy and cholecystectomy in a 2-year-old with acute suppurative appendicitis and gallbladder torsion: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. 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
Background: Pediatric gallbladder torsion is a rare but potentially life-threatening cause of acute abdomen. The first case was reported in the 19th century, yet the precise pathogenesis remains unclear. Due to its nonspecific symptoms, gallbladder torsion in children is frequently misdiagnosed as more common conditions, such as acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, or gastrointestinal infections. Case presentation: A 2-year and 4-month-old boy was admitted to our emergency department with abdominal pain, fever, and vomiting. Initial blood tests revealed a white blood cell count of 13.13 × 10 Conclusion: Laparoscopic exploration for pediatric acute appendicitis should include the gallbladder as a standard investigation target.
