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

We experienced four cases of metachronous double cancer after curative resection for pancreatic adenocarcinoma without the background of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. Case 1, a 67-year-old Japanese female developed tongue cancer 53 months after a pylorus-preserving Whipple resection for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. Case 2, a 66-year-old female developed multiple breast cancers 52 months after a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. Case 3, a 59-year-old male developed an adenocarcinoma in the remnant pancreatic head 63 months after a distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic body cancer. Case 4, a 68-year-old male developed lung cancer 92 months after a Whipple procedure for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. Gemcitabine was administered to three patients as adjuvant chemotherapy at an average administrated dose of 38,199 mg per body surface area. Since primary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is aggressive and always associated with a devastating outcome, metachronous double cancer is scarcely seen. All four cases received curative-intent surgery for each metachronous cancer and were alive for at least 20 months.
