De Garengeot hernia presenting with acute appendicitis: a rare dual pathology and surgical challenge: a case report.

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
De Garengeot hernia is uncommon, contributing to ~0.5%-5% of all femoral hernias. A healthy 31-year-old male patient presented with a 3-day history of migrating right lower quadrant pain, nausea, and vomiting. Acute appendicitis was identified on a computed tomography scan. On the Diagnostic laparoscopy, the appendix was extremely inflamed and herniated in the femoral canal, a diagnostic feature of a De Garengeot hernia. The appendix was reduced gently; however, the hernia was not repaired in this index surgery. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged on the first postoperative day. An elective laparoscopic femoral hernia repair was scheduled. De Garengeot hernia with complicated acute appendicitis is an operative and diagnostic challenge. This case is unique due to the patient's young age. Accurate early diagnosis and an individualized operative plan were key factors in achieving an excellent outcome.
