Hydatid disease of pancreas: A case report.
Article in Interventional medicine & applied science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Primary pancreatic hydatid disease is extremely rare. Diagnosis of the disease is difficult because hydatid cysts can be confused with a pseudocyst or neoplastic cystic diseases. Authors report a case of a surgically treated hydatid disease of the uncinate process of pancreas. In a 34-year-old patient with minor symptoms, a cystic disease of the pancreas was accidentally identified. CT scan revealed a multivesicular cystic mass with a maximum of 13-cm diameter and with a calcificated wall. During laparotomy, the uncinate process of pancreas was resecated and the cystic lesion was enucleated. Patient was recovered without complications and recurrence of the disease. There must be a suspicion of hydatid disease when cysts are identified in good conditioned, asymptomatic patients, or in case of wall calcification or multivesicular cysts revealed by radiological images. Surgical procedures are recommended in uncertain diagnoses too, because differentiation preoperatively between cystic pancreatic lesions is often impossible.
