Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours: spectrum of imaging findings.
Review in Gland surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (pNETs) are rare and heterogeneous group of neoplasms presenting with a wide variety of symptoms and biological behaviour, from indolent to aggressive ones. pNETs are stratified into functional or non-functional, because of their ability to produce metabolically active hormones. pNETs can be an isolate phenomenon or a part of a hereditary syndrome like von Hippel-Lindau syndrome or neurofibromatosis-1. The incidence has increased in the last years, also because of the improvement of cross-sectional imaging. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional imaging are the mainstay imaging modalities used for tumour detection and disease extension assessment, due to easy availability and better contrast/spatial resolution. Radiological imaging plays a fundamental role in detection, characterization and surveillance of pNETs and is involved in almost every stage of patients' management. Moreover, with specific indications and techniques, interventional radiology can also play a role in therapeutic management. Surgery is the treatment of choice, consisting of either partial pancreatectomy or enucleation of the primary tumour. This article reviews the radiologic features of different pNETs as well as imaging mimics, in order to help radiologists to avoid potential pitfalls, to reach the correct diagnosis and to support the multidisciplinary team in establishing the right treatment.
