Primary pancreatic low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma presenting with multiple masses.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 case concerns a 55-year-old Japanese man with multiple pancreatic tumors that were incidentally detected by ultrasonography (US) in a routine medical examination. He consulted a doctor since either neuroendocrine tumors or metastases of small-cell lung carcinoma were suspected, because he had an abnormal shadow in the lung. Then he was transferred to our hospital. Imaging studies showed multiple pancreatic tumors of 3.0-cm diameter in the head, 1.0 cm in the body and 1.5 cm in the tail, respectively. Specimen by endoscopic ultrasonography fine-needle aspiration cytology (EUS-FNAC) revealed numerous B-cell lymphocytes, but a definite diagnosis of malignant lymphoma could not be obtained. Therefore, a segmental pancreatic body resection was performed to clarify the features of the tumor for appropriate therapy. Consequently, the final diagnosis was obtained as a low-grade B-cell lymphoma having a lymphoepithelial lesion, which indicated mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Radiation therapy with 31 Gy successfully resulted in complete remission. We report here for the first time on primary pancreatic low-grade MALT lymphoma presenting with multiple pancreatic masses.
