Anaplastic Carcinoma of the Pancreas: A Rare Clinical Entity.
Article in Cureus, 2017. 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
Anaplastic carcinoma of the pancreas (ACP) is a very rare histologic subtype of pancreatic cancer and associated with more aggressive and poor prognosis than pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. We aimed to review this rare entity and discuss its clinical features, diagnosis and therapy. We presented a case of a 63-year-old male patient that diagnosed as ACP with cyst formation at a tertiary medical center with a detailed review of the current medical literature. We performed pancreaticoduodenectomy operation with lymph node dissection after diagnosis. Any complication after surgery was not observed. Anaplastic pancreas carcinomas are associated with poor survival when compared to invasive ductal adenocarcinomas. Clinical, radiological, laboratory and histological features may be helpful in making differential diagnosis and should be kept in mind in the diagnosis of this rare pancreatic malignancy.
