Primary lymph node gastrinoma: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in World journal of surgical oncology, 2020. 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
backgroundGastrinoma is a rare form of neuroendocrine neoplasm. The presence of a primary lymph node localization of gastrinoma is a much debated and controversial topic in the literature, as regards whether these cases represent metastatic disease from an as yet unidentified primary tumor, or the de novo occurrence of a gastrinoma in a lymph node. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 24-year-old male with intense epigastric pain treated at the beginning with high dose proton pump inhibitors. Further workup with CT and subsequent laparotomy revealed a single peripancreatic lymph node. Histological examination highlighted a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor.
conclusionThis case underlines that the primitive lymph node gastrinoma is a distinct nosological entity with a precise location in the context of rare neuroendocrine tumors that should be considered when specific symptoms are associated with the identification of isolated lymph nodes, after excluding any possible primitive locations of neoplastic localization.
