EUS-guided needle biopsy for autoimmune pancreatitis.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA), though a well-established method for specimen acquisition from pancreatic neoplasm, has a limited role for non-focal benign pancreatic diseases such as autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) due to sample inadequacy and architectural distortion. Core biopsies through EUS-trucut biopsy (EUS-TCB) or newer generation EUS-fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) enable better histopathologic review through greater tissue specimen size and visualization of the histologic milieu. We systematically reviewed EUS-guided sample acquisition (FNA or core biopsy) and the role of EUS-guided needle biopsy in evaluation of AIP. EUS-guided needle biopsy provided significantly higher adequacy of specimen (96.8% vs 79.8%; p = 0.016) and higher diagnostic sensitivity (60.20% vs 42.02%; p < 0.0001) compared to EUS-FNA for AIP. More evidence is imperative in evaluating the feasibility, safety, and diagnostic utility of EUS-guided needle biopsy for AIP.
