1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A previously healthy 52-year-old man was referred to our hospital for further evaluation of main pancreatic duct dilatation. The preoperative work-up was consistent with intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma (IPMC) derived from a mixed type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), because multilocular cysts with enhancing thickened pancreatic head walls and dilated pancreatic ducts lined with dysplastic mucinous epithelium, with papillary proliferation from the pancreatic body to the tail, were observed; in addition, the pancreatic juice cytology was class V, which is suggestive of adenocarcinoma. Total pancreatectomy was performed because a definite mass was not found before surgical resection and the tumors could have spread to the tail. The pathological diagnosis was mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma of the pancreatic head. IPMN with high- or low-grade dysplasia was not observed anywhere in the pancreatic duct. The pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma consisted of large caliber malignant glands with intraluminal flat or papillary structures; therefore, we were unable to recognize a definite pancreatic mass before surgical resection, and suspected an IPMC derived from a mixed type IPMN.
