Increased 18F-FDG uptake of heterotopic pancreatitis in the small intestine: A CARE-compliant case report.
Article in Medicine, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroudHeterotopic pancreas (HP), a relatively uncommon congenital anomaly, is rarely noted during F-FDG positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan.
methodsA 60-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to a 10-day history of abdominal pain with elevated levels of serum amylase and lipase. Abdominal CT and ultrasound examinations were negative. In order to search for the cause, an F-FDG PET/CT whole body scan was suggested to an old woman revealing the presence of F-FDG accumulating nodule in small intestine.
resultsSurgical findings and pathologic results confirmed the diagnosis of small intestinal heterotopic pancreas with active chronic inflammation.
conclusionThis uncommon case underscores the necessity of considering heterotopic pancreatitis in small intestine with focal F-FDG uptake as a possible differential diagnosis in intestinal tumor and tuberculosis.
