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

Appendix intussusception (AI), with ~200 reported cases, is a rare condition in which the appendix invaginates into the cecum [1]. Etiologies include benign and malignant pathologies including both intraluminal and extraluminal lesions, but dual pathology has not been described previously. We present a case of a 52-year-old female with colonoscopic findings suspicious for AI or a submucosal lesion. Surgical pathology following appendectomy revealed AI caused by both endometriosis and a mucinous adenoma. AI is usually diagnosed incidentally on laparoscopy. Though rarely diagnosed preoperatively, recognizing AI on colonoscopy is critical. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of AI due to both endometriosis and mucinous neoplasm.
