Apparent diffusion coefficient-based histogram analysis differentiates histological subtypes of periampullary adenocarcinoma.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundFor periampullary adenocarcinoma, the histological subtype is a better prognostic predictor than the site of tumor origin. Intestinal-type periampullary adenocarcinoma (IPAC) is reported to have a better prognosis than the pan-creatobiliary-type periampullary adenocarcinoma (PPAC). However, the classification of histological subtypes is difficult to determine before surgery. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis is a noninvasive, non-enhanced method with high reproducibility that could help differentiate the two subtypes.
aimTo investigate whether volumetric ADC histogram analysis is helpful for distinguishing IPAC from PPAC.
methodsBetween January 2015 and October 2018, 476 consecutive patients who were suspected of having a periampullary tumor and underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were reviewed in this retrospective study. Only patients who underwent MRI at 3.0 T with different diffusion-weighted images (
