Superinfected Cystic Omental Lymphangioma: A Rare Cause of Acute Abdomen in Children.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
Cystic lymphangioma is a benign yet rare vascular anomaly with an estimated incidence rate of 1 in every 20,000-250,000 individuals. They often tend to be asymptomatic. Lymphangiomas are usually diagnosed in children under 2 years of age and typically present as a lateral neck or axillary mass. Their presentation as an abdominal mass with acute abdominal presentation is unusual. In this case report, we present a case of cystic omental lymphangioma in a 9-year-old male schooler who was presented with sudden onset of severe, sharp lower abdominal pain lasting 4 days. The patient had a previous history of similar abdominal complaints, where he received treatment for intestinal parasites without significant improvement. Imaging and histopathology results later found a cystic omental lymphangioma which was treated successfully with surgical resection. We also navigate challenges associated with the early diagnosis of omental lymphangiomas in resource-limited settings.
