1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The emergence of the disease entity of glucocorticoid-responsive systemic immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related pancreatobiliary disease has generated substantial attention among the international gastroenterology society. IgG4-related pancreatobiliary disease includes type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC). The typical manifestations of IgG4-related pancreatobiliary disease are cholestatic liver dysfunction, obstructive jaundice, and weight loss, although it may present with no clinical symptoms. Since it mimics tumors on imaging, AIP/IgG4-SC may often be misdiagnosed as pancreatic or biliary cancer. The endoscopic armamentarium for the diagnosis of IgG4-related pancreatobiliary disease includes endoscopic ultrasonography, intraductal ultrasonography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and cholangioscopy. The role of endoscopic tissue acquisition is two-fold in the diagnosis of IgG4-related pancreatobiliary disease: exclusion of cancer and procurement of histopathological proof for diagnosis of AIP/IgG4-SC, which can also be achieved by adding the immunohistochemistry for IgG4. Our review article addresses the role of various endoscopic examinations in diagnosing IgG4-related pancreatobiliary disease, focusing on the differentiation of this condition from pancreatobiliary malingnancies.
