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

Heterotopic pancreatic tissue of the stomach is a rare condition. The author herein reports three cases of heterotopic pancreatic of the stomach. The three cases were found in the 8,154 gastric specimens (biopsy 6,122 cases, gastrectomy 2,032 cases) of our pathology laboratory; the frequency was 0.04%. The first case was a 57-year-old woman who presented with epigastralgia. Endoscopic examination revealed a submucosal tumor in the body of the stomach. Partial gastrectomy was performed. Histologically, the lesion measured 25 × 20 × 25 mm and was submucosal heterotopic pancreatic tissue with hemorrhage and cystic changes. It was composed of acinar cells, ducts, and islets (Heinrich type I). The second case was a 57-year-old man without symptoms. Endoscopic examination revealed a submucosal tumor, and biopsy was taken. The biopsy showed heterotopic pancreatic tissue in the mucosa. It consisted of acinar cells and ducts (Heinrich type II). The third case was a 54-year-old woman without symptoms. Endoscopic examination showed chronic gastritis, and biopsy was obtained. The biopsy revealed heterotopic pancreatic tissue in the mucosa. It consisted of acinar cells and ducts (Heinrich type II). The first case appears to be a true heterotopic pancreas of congenital abnormality. The second and third cases seem to be heterotopic pancreatic tissues of congenital anomaly of the gastric mucosa. The histogenesis of heterotopic pancreatic tissue is discussed.
