Small, low-grade ampullary neuroendocrine tumor presenting with metastasis and multiple synchronous tumors in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1: a case report with literature review.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a tumor syndrome and one of the most common genetic disorders. Patients have an increased risk of developing neurologic and gastrointestinal (GI) neoplasms, but GI lesions are often underrecognized since most cases are asymptomatic. It is extremely rare to see multiple types of abdominal tumors synchronously in NF1. In this case, we describe a patient presenting with a small, low-grade periampullary neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection and later pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure). This led to findings of lymph node and distant metastasis of her NET, and the incidental discovery of gastrointestinal stromal tumors, extensive pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia, and main duct and side branch intraductal pancreatic mucinous neoplasm. The synchronous presence of these lesions has not been reported in the literature.
