Pancreatic Lipoma: A Pancreatic Incidentaloma Diagnosis with Computed Tomography.
Article in European journal of case reports in internal medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Lipoma of the pancreas is a rare benign tumour which is usually discovered incidentally on imaging. We present a case of an incidentally discovered pancreatic lipoma in a 79-year-old man with non-metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma who was referred to radiology for follow-up imaging. Fat-containing tumours originating from the pancreas are very rare. Most lipomas show characteristic features on imaging that allow their differentiation. We present the imaging features of a pancreatic lipoma on ultrasound, CT and MRI, discuss the differential diagnosis, and provide a brief review of the literature. LEARNING POINTS: Pancreatic lipoma is a rare mesenchymal tumour that is being increasingly recognized.Pancreatic lipoma is commonly asymptomatic and incidentally detected.CT and MRI allow confirmation of the diagnosis and elimination of other differential diagnoses.
