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
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an extremely malignant tumor with high lethality in humans. Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) is the predominant precancerous lesion for PDAC. Although PanIN is frequently detected in the normal and inflamed pancreas, only a few of PanIN eventually progress into PDAC. Thus, inhibition of PanIN-to-PDAC conversion is critical for preventing the occurrence of PDAC. Here, we evaluated the effect of inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling on the progression of low-grade PanIN into high-grade PDAC in an established mouse PDAC model (Ptf1a-Cre; K-rasG12D). We found that intraductal infusion of EGFR inhibitors at 12 weeks of age, which induced sustained inhibition of EGFR signaling in the pancreas, significantly decreased the incidence of high-grade PanIN in these mice at 24 weeks of age. Thus, our study suggests that inhibition of EGFR signaling may prevent development of PDAC.
