Recurrent intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas mimicking ampullary cancer.
Article in Annals of gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although several studies have reported that some patients developed metachronous/recurrent intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) after partial pancreatectomy, recurrence of IPMN mimicking ampullary cancer is extremely rare. We report the case of a 62-year-old man who developed recurrent IPMN mimicking ampullary cancer. Every 3-6 months, the patient had received surveillance with computed tomography after distal pancreatectomy for IPMN, high-grade, pancreatobiliary type. However, a villous tumor at the major duodenal papilla was found incidentally by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy 2 years and 3 months after initial surgery, and the biopsy result was adenocarcinoma. Endoscopic ultrasonography showed a tumor at the periampullary lesion; however, the origin of the tumor could not be determined definitively. Remnant total pancreatectomy was performed, and the histological diagnosis revealed IPMN, high-grade, pancreatobiliary type. Some patients develop recurrent IPMN mimicking ampullary cancer; thus, careful surveillance for periampullary lesions as well as remnant pancreas should be performed.
