Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality and is associated with a poor overall survival even when diagnosed early and considered resectable. Complete surgical removal with negative histological margins is an independent predictor of survival and remains the only potential curative treatment. In borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma (BRPAC), preoperative systemic therapy may increase resectability and margin-negative resection rate. There is no current consensus on the optimal chemotherapy regimen for BRPAC. The present case describes a patient with BRPAC who achieved a pathological complete response to neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX (folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan and oxaliplatin), but early relapse following a pancreaticoduodenectomy without vascular resection, with an uneventful postoperative course, except for a pulmonary embolism.
