Autoimmune pancreatitis presenting as a pancreatic head mass.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is often difficult as the main differential diagnosis is pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. Some clinical, radiological, serological and histological criteria help in guiding the diagnosis. The serum gamma-globulin IgG4 dosage is the most sensitive and specific marker. The shape of the ductal stenosis in AIP is characteristic. The treatment is based on corticosteroids. We report the case of a 53-year-old woman, presenting with pancreatic head mass mimicking an adenocarcinoma.
