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

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas (SPN) is a rare entity; therefore proper diagnosis, evaluation and formulation of treatment protocols is difficult. A total of 14 cases were diagnosed and treated at our institute over a 10-year period (1992-2002). A retrospective study of all these cases was performed with respect to age group most frequently affected, sex ratio, common presenting symptoms and signs, investigative protocols, pathological features, treatment offered, outcome and prognosis. All the 14 patients were females, with a median age of 20 years (range 13-45 years). The commonest presenting symptom was abdominal pain. All these patients underwent surgical exploration; 13 patients underwent resection of the tumour. The average length of postoperative hospital stay was 10.3 days. Significant postoperative morbidity was seen in only one case. There was no postoperative mortality. All these patients who underwent resection were disease-free on follow-up ranging from 6 to 96 months (median 36 months).
