Pancreatic Follicular Lymphoma Presenting as Acute Pancreatitis: Report of a Case.
Article in International surgery, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pancreatic B-cell lymphoma is rare; it accounts for 0.2% to 2.0% of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and constitutes less than 0.5% of all pancreatic malignancies. Most histologic types of the pancreatic lymphoma are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma is quite rare. We report here a case of pancreatic follicular lymphoma that was initially detected by acute pancreatitis. This is the first reported case of pancreatic follicular lymphoma presenting with acute pancreatitis. A 71-year-old woman had epigastric and left upper quadrant abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) revealed features of acute pancreatitis. After standard therapy for pancreatitis, enhanced CT showed a pancreatic tumor (50 × 35 mm) in the body of the pancreas with gradual enhancement. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed a complete interruption of the pancreatic duct in the body, with mild dilation of the duct in the tail of the pancreas. Endoscopic ultrasonography revealed hypervascularity of the pancreatic tumor. The patient underwent distal pancreatectomy to remove the cause of pancreatitis and to disclose the diagnosis. Histologic examination revealed follicular lymphoma of pancreas. Despite recent improvement in clinical strategies, differential diagnosis between pancreatic lymphoma and pancreatic cancer is still difficult without histologic information. Pancreatic lymphoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis in a patient who initially presents with acute pancreatitis.
