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

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a disease concept that originated in Japan. It is characterized by diffuse pancreatic enlargement and irregular narrowing of the main pancreatic duct. Although the usefulness of the histological diagnosis of AIP using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and EUS-guided fine-needle biopsy (FNB) has been reported, enhanced diagnostic performance is expected with improvements in tissue collection methods and fine-needle techniques. Guidance for establishing the tissue diagnosis of AIP has been developed and is useful for histological evaluation. Histopathological diagnosis by EUS-FNA/FNB is expected to play a central role in AIP diagnosis in the future.
