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

backgroundMalignant solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) are rare tumor entities of the pancreas. The prognosis for SPN is generally excellent, although some tumors have malignant potential and tend to metastasize or relapse.

objectiveThe aim was to investigate whether there are histopathological or surgical risk factors that enable the biological potential of SPN to be estimated. PATIENTS AND

methodsData from patients with SPN treated in two large German pancreas centers from 2009 to 2018 were evaluated with respect to the occurrence of SPN, surgical management, histopathological tumor characteristics and the postoperative outcome.

resultsA total of 22 patients with SPN (17 women, 5 men) were operated on. The median age of the patients was 37 years (range 19-69 years). At the time of surgery 20 patients showed tumor growth limited to the pancreas. A female patient with recurrence of an externally resected SPN had lymph node involvement. Another female patient had a hepatic metastatic recurrence (Union Internationale contre Cancer (UICC) stage IV) of an externally resected SPN. Although all patients survived recurrence-free during the follow-up, this patient developed liver metastases again. The survival rate up to the end of the follow-up (median 43 months; range 1-132 months) of this study was 100%.

conclusionThere is a lack of knowledge of the possible parameters that can be used to predict the biological behavior of SPN. Apart from an increased likelihood of recurrence after resection of an SPN recurrence, no clear risk factors could be identified in the examined patient collective that could indicate an increased malignant potential and a possibly poorer outcome. Only a radical surgical resection with lymphadenectomy enables a reliable assessment of the tumor stage and the removal of possibly affected lymph nodes, which could be the cause of a recurrence if left intact.
