The role of apparent diffusion coefficient value in the diagnosis of localized type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis: differentiation from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and evaluation of response to steroids.
Article in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe aim of this study was to clarify the usefulness of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value in the differential diagnosis of localized autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and the evaluation of response to steroids.
methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 40 patients with localized AIP and 71 patients with PDAC who underwent abdominal MRI with DWI (b = 0 and 1000 s/mm
resultsThe median ADC value was significantly lower for localized AIP than for PDAC (1.057 × 10
conclusionThe measurement of ADC values was useful for the differential diagnosis of localized AIP and PDAC and for the early determination of the effect of steroid therapy.
