Management and outcomes of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms.
Article in BJS open, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: This study evaluated the outcome and survival of patients with radiologically suspected intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). Methods: IPMN management was reviewed according to Fukuoka risk factors and IPMN localization, differentiating main-duct (MD), mixed-type (MT) and branch-duct (BD) IPMNs. Perioperative results were compared with those of patients undergoing resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) over the same interval (2010-2014). Overall (OS) and disease-specific (DSS) survival rates were calculated and subgroups compared. Results: Of 142 patients with IPMNs, 26 had MD-IPMN, eight had MT-IPMN and 108 had BD-IPMN. Some 74 per cent of patients with MD- and MT-IPMN were managed by primary resection, whereas this was used in only 27·8 per cent of those with BD-IPMN. The risk of secondary resection and malignant transformation for BD-IPMNs smaller than 20 mm was 8 and 2 per cent respectively during follow-up. Pancreatic head resection of IPMNs was associated with an increased risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula grade B/C compared with resection of PDAC (12 of 33 (36 per cent) Conclusion: The risk of malignant transformation was very low for BD-IPMNs, but the development of high-risk stigmata was associated with disease-specific mortality. Patients with IPMN had greater morbidity after resection than those having resection of PDAC.
