Management Algorithm for Cystic Pancreatic Lesions.
Review in Visceral medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cystic pancreatic lesions are common findings in an aging society due to an increasing availability of high-resolution cross-sectional imaging. Although the overall prevalence of malignancy and the rate of malignant conversion are low, especially mucinous pancreatic cystic lesions such as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm and mucinous cystic neoplasm harbor significant malignant potential depending on their morphology and size. Recently updated guidelines recommend sophisticated algorithms for initial workup and surveillance based on individual characteristics of the cystic lesion and the patient, thus weighing the lifetime risk for malignancy against the adverse event rate of potentially curative surgery in the light of number and location of cystic lesions, age of the patient, comorbidities, and the resulting life expectancy as well as the effect of repeated follow-up examinations on the patient's quality of life. This article summarizes recommendations from available guidelines and proposes a pragmatic approach to the clinical management of pancreatic cystic lesions.
