1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A 78-year-old man was referred to our hospital for a detailed examination of a pancreatic tumor that filled the main pancreatic duct (MPD). The histological diagnosis of the endoscopic biopsy specimen was neuroendocrine tumor (NET) G3. The patient subsequently underwent total pancreatectomy. The histological diagnosis of the surgical specimen was also NET G3. This is the first report of a NET that occupied the MPD and was diagnosed by a preoperative endoscopic biopsy through the papilla of Vater. This case is a good example of a histopathological diagnostic method for pancreatic tumors invading the entire MPD.
