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

backgroundEndosalpingiosis is a rare benign condition characterized by the ectopic presence of ciliated tub epithelium outside the fallopian tubes, often found in the ovaries, uterus, and other pelvic structures. CASE PRESENTATION: This case report presents a 21-year-old Iranian woman who presented to the emergency department with severe right lower quadrant abdominal pain, nausea, and a feeling of fever. Despite normal imaging results, histopathological examination following laparoscopic appendicectomy revealed appendiceal endosalpingiosis. Following appendicectomy, all signs and symptoms were relieved. This rare phenomenon highlights another rare but important differential diagnosis of appendicitis.

conclusionsGiven the limited number of reported cases, further investigation is necessary to understand the mechanism and clinical significance of endosalpingiosis. Due to its potential association with gynecological pathologies, we recommend systematic gynecological evaluation in these patients.
