Rare gastric outlet obstruction owing to ectopic pancreas: a case report and literature review.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The ectopic pancreas is often observed in the gastrointestinal tract, and is typically asymptomatic. A 28-year-old woman was referred to our hospital following repeated vomiting after every meal. Following gastroscopy, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT), and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), she was diagnosed with gastric outlet obstruction, also known as pyloric obstruction, caused by a giant submucosal cystic tumor. The condition was successfully treated with EUS-guided cystic drainage, and she was diagnosed with a cystic tumor originating from the ectopic pancreas. The tumor shrank following EUS-guided cystic drainage, and her obstructive symptoms resolved. In cases with overgrowth of the ectopic pancreas, the differential diagnosis of malignancy is important but challenging. Herein, we report a unique final pathology of this rare case and discuss the findings with a literature review.
