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

introductionThe risk of periampullary neoplasia in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is significantly increased compared to the general population. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We herein report the case of a 47-year-old woman with classic familial adenomatous polyposis with a history of total proctocolectomy for FAP who presented with an ulcerous ampullary lesion 8 years after primary colorectal surgery. Interestingly, the patient had not enrolled to optimal postoperative upper endoscopy follow-up. The patient underwent a Whipple procedure. Histology demonstrated a T2N0 ampullary adenocarcinoma. DISCUSSION: Periampullary disease in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis occurs increasingly, especially in the subset of patients without proper endoscopic follow-up. Current recommendations concerning upper endoscopy and appropriate management are herein discussed; the importance of optimal postoperative endoscopy after total proctocolectomy in the FAP setting is discussed.

conclusionPeriampullary cancer carries a significant risk in patients with FAP and proper endoscopic follow-up should be applied in this special patient group in order to manage ampullary manifestations of the disease in a timely manner.
