1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Intestinal malrotation persisting into adulthood is rare and may cause atypical presentations of common surgical emergencies such as appendicitis. Left-sided acute appendicitis due to malrotation is an uncommon but important diagnostic pitfall. We present A 28-year-old woman with no past medical history who presented to the emergency department at our institution in August 2025 with a three-day history of progressive left-sided abdominal pain localized mainly to the left iliac fossa. Laboratory investigations revealed leukocytosis (WBC 15 × 10
