Appendicitis Perforated by Endometriosis in a 50-Year-Old Woman: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
People often experience pain in the lower right side of the abdomen due to appendicitis, which is a frequent issue for both men and women. Every year, numerous appendectomies are performed in the United States. Another condition that affects many women is endometriosis, where tissue similar to the uterine lining appears in other parts of the body, such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or abdominal area. In rare situations, it might even be found in the chest. We report a case of a 50-year-old woman presenting with acute right lower quadrant pain, diagnosed with complicated appendicitis. Laparoscopic appendectomy was performed, and histopathology revealed appendiceal endometriosis at the site of perforation. Appendiceal endometriosis remains a rare and often unsuspected cause of appendicitis, posing diagnostic and surgical challenges.
