Gastric GIST with synchronous neuroendocrine tumour of the pancreas in a patient without neurofibromatosis type 1.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract. These are rare tumours with an incidence of 15 new cases per million per year. The occurrence of neuroendocrine tumours of the pancreas is rare, representing 1-5% of pancreatic cancers, and it is estimated that its incidence does not exceed five to one million. GISTs are common in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1); there are few reported cases of synchronous neuroendocrine tumours in these patients and most are pheochromocytomas. The case reports a 64-year-old woman referred to the General Surgery Outpatient for incidental finding of gastric and pancreatic tumours. She underwent a radical subtotal pancreatectomy + partial gastrectomy with jejunal transposition. The pathological examination revealed: gastric GISTs and a well-differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma of the pancreas. This is the second case published so far of a patient with both tumours and without NF1. Posterior studies must be performed to evaluate if some other genetic disorder is involved in these patients without NF1.
