Exploring the Immunological Role of the Microbial Composition of the Appendix and the Associated Risks of Appendectomies.
Review in Journal of personalized medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07128758 (The Effect of Music Listening on the Initial Mobility Level of Pediatric Patients Undergoing Appendectomy), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.

Abstract
The appendix, an integral part of the large intestine, may serve two purposes. First of all, it is a concentration of lymphoid tissue that resembles Peyer's patches. It is also the main location in the body for the creation of immunoglobulin A (IgA), which is essential for controlling intestinal flora's density and quality. Second, the appendix constitutes a special place for commensal bacteria in the body because of its location and form. Inflammation of the appendix, brought on by a variety of infectious agents, including bacteria, viruses, or parasites, is known as appendicitis. According to a number of studies, the consequences of appendectomies may be more subtle, and may relate to the emergence of heart disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and Parkinson's disease (PD), among other unexpected illnesses.
