Clinical features and CT/MRI findings of pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
To retrospectively review the clinical features and computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of PAAC so as to improve the accuracy of imaging diagnosis. Seventeen patients with pathologically proven PAAC were enrolled. Their clinical and imaging findings were retrospectively reviewed. The median age of the patients was 56 years (range, 7-74 years). The tumors were located in any part of the pancreas or exophyitc growth, with a median maximal diameter of 68 mm. Thirteen masses presented with ovoid shape. Nine masses had less clear boundaries. Eleven masses showed a variable degree of intratumoral hypodense or necrosis before contrast administration on CT images. Five masses showed hypointense on unenhanced T1 weighted images and hyperintense on T2 weighted images. After contrast administration, the most common enhancement pattern was slight enhancement on arterial phase and persistent enhancement on portal vein phase. Infiltration of tumor into duct and vessels was not common. Five and 2 patients developed hepatic metastasis and local lymphadenopathy, respectively. By the end of the last follow-up, 11 patients survived free of disease. PAAC should be included in the differential diagnosis when a bulky, ovoid, heterogeneous mass, with clear or less clear margins, in the pancreas or peripancreas, with slight and persistent enhancement after contrast administration on CT or MRI images is seen, particularly in elder men.
