Evaluation of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula using multiplanar reformation in MDCT: correlation with ERCP findings.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo determine the ability of multidetector computed tomography (MPR-MDCT) to identify and classify the juxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum (JPDD), with ERCP findings as the gold standard.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed all ERCP examinations (n: 455) performed between January 2010 to December 2018 and selected 105 patients with JPDD as the inclusion criteria. Of those, 28 patients were excluded because of advanced pancreatic carcinoma, incomplete MDCT examinations and biliary catheter insertion. Finally, MDCT examinations of 77 patients with JPDD were assessed for the presence and type of JPDD.
resultsMPR-MDCT was able to identify 71 (92.2%) JPDD in 77 cases with 88.9% accuracy, 83.3% sensitivity, and 91.6% specificity in classifying the type of JPDD. MPR-MDCT performed best in determining type 1 JPDD, with accuracy of 95.4% compared with type 2 (83.3%) and type 3 (87.8%). There was no significant difference between age, gender, incidence of biliary stones and pancreatitis between each type of JPDD. No correlation of sizes with types of JPDD was found.
conclusionsMPR-MDCT can accurately identify and classify JPDD. This information will be useful in determining the difficulty of ERCP.
