Hindgut gastropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma mimicking hydatid disease.

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
Primary neuroendocrine tumors of the colon are usually very rare and difficult to spot on a nonfunctional imaging. Metastatic lesions are mostly hypervascular, with only a small percentage appearing as cystic or hypovascular lesions. We present a case of a 34-year-old Hispanic female with a history of dull aching upper abdominal pain lasting for a few months. Initial abdominal ultrasound revealed multiple cystic lesions replacing the hepatic parenchyma concerning for a hydatid disease. Liver biopsy was obtained due to negative serology for hydatid disease, which surprisingly revealed a metastatic neuroendocrine tumor of unknown etiology. The primary disease was depicted within the sigmoid colon on a whole-body Octreotide single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography done following the biopsy.
