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

Pancreatic lipomas are rare. We present a case of incidentally discovered pancreatic lipoma in a 45-year-old female suffering from metastatic ovarian carcinoma who was referred to radiology for follow-up imaging. Fat-containing tumours originating from the pancreas are very rare. Most lipomasshow characteristic features on imaging that allow their differentiation. In most cases, accurate diagnosis is attained without any histopathological confirmation. We present the imaging features of pancreatic lipoma on ultrasound, CT scan and MRI, the differential diagnosis and a brief review of the literature.
