Localized intrapancreatic malignant mesothelioma: a rare entity that may be confused with other pancreatic neoplasms.
Review in Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Malignant mesothelioma usually presents with diffuse involvement of the pleura or peritoneum. Circumscribed or localized malignant mesothelioma has been described in these locations, as well as the viscera, in which case it may cause diagnostic confusion with other, more common entities. Herein, we describe the first well-documented case of primary intrapancreatic malignant mesothelioma in the English literature. The patient was an otherwise healthy 39-year-old woman who presented with a symptomatic mass in the head of the pancreas that was completely resected via pancreaticoduodenectomy. The tumor was composed of cysts, papillae, and tubules lined by cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and immunohistochemically expressed CA-125, calretinin, and D2-40. Follow-up revealed no evidence of residual or recurrent disease 32 months after surgery. This report also describes the clinical and pathologic characteristics of an intrapancreatic mesothelioma and provides a review of the literature regarding entities that may be considered in the differential diagnosis of this tumor.
