Cystic dystrophy of the duodenal wall in heterotopic pancreas: an atypical case in non-alcoholic female.
Article in BJR case reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cystic dystrophy of the duodenal wall in heterotopic pancreas, recently described as paraduodenal pancreatitis, is a rare condition characterized by multiple cysts or pseudocysts located in the submucosa or muscularis propria of a thickened duodenal wall. They result from multiple episodes of obstruction of the small ducts in aberrant pancreatic islets. Cystic dystrophy of the duodenal wall in heterotopic pancreas usually affects alcoholic males, but here we present the case of a female without a history of alcohol abuse who was referred to our emergency department with abdominal pain and vomiting. She was treated by a pancreas-preserving surgical approach, thanks to a proper pre-operative differential diagnosis. Even though differentiating this benign condition from pancreatic cancer is a challenge, some characteristic findings on multidetector CT scan and MRI/MR cholangiopancreatography, such as a thickened duodenal wall containing cysts and sheet-like tissues in the pancreaticoduodenal groove, could lead to the correct diagnosis.
